Beautiful allegory

Visually, this movie cannot be beat. Cameron's adventures with deep sea diving clearly impacted the incredibly beautiful world created in this film. More importantly, the film explores the horrors that the unfettered greed for profit have on other cultures and the natural world. Powerful story, gorgeously told.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Astonishing Live Performance
PostedApril 24, 2009

This American Life is a wildly successful broadcast on NPR stations, and generally include several different acts all around a single theme. The live broadcast beamed last night into hundreds of movie theaters around the country (originating from a theater in NYC) took the theme "Returning to the Scene of the Crime." Ira Glass was spot-on, witty, funny as heck, and was as subtly forceful a presence as ever. Contributors included Mike Birbiglia, Starlee Kine, and Dan Savage, who basically brought the house down both with laughter and tears (not to mention flinty-edged poignancy.) I highly recommend this to anyone who wishes to see how live radio with heart is created.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
