Seriously a must see!!! In the words of Dr. J, "I have no problem giving that movie a five out of five." And just in case your thinking that I'm just picking on something because it isn't my culture I just wanted to say that the next movie in my queue is Temple Grandin...the woman who revolutionized the slaughter of cattle...my steak :( Should be interesting.
I also loved The Cove - it was amazing stuff! Just incredible. I enjoyed the Temple Grandin movie, too. She actually Skyped into one of my psychology classes when I was an undergrad and we got to talk to her directly. Claire Danes absolutely NAILS all of her mannerisms and even her voice. It's an outstanding film.
ReplyDeleteI also highly recommend The Inside Job if you haven't already seen it. GREAT documentary.
