Maybe
I'm biased because I've had this fascination with dolphins since I was a little
kid, but I absolutely loved this documentary on these sleek, intelligent mammals.
Shot in the breathtaking Imax format, this beautiful, and educational study on
these fascinating creatures benefits greatly from the film stock it's shot on.
There's nothing like watching sweeping aerial shots of the deep blue sea, and
being taken on a spectacular underwater journey, on an Imax screen. It makes the
experience all the more breathtaking.
From
the Bahamas to the Patagonia, Dr. Kathleen Dudzinski, Dr. Bernd Wursig, and Dr.
Alejandro Acevedo-Guituerrez study dolphins in their natural habitat, to learn
more about how they function and communicate. Even though I already knew quite
a bit about these beautiful animals, Dolphins had things to teach me.
Dolphins
comes from film maker MacGillvray Freeman and the producers of the brilliant Everest.
This is an equally fascinating trip into a world you've never seen. The film also
features perfectly fitting tunes from Sting. Dolphins was actually released
nearly a year ago, and is making it's way to Imax screens across the country.
I've seen quite a few Imax pictures, and this was one of the best. If you want
