Movie: March of the Penguins (2005)


More info at Amazon

While this is an amazing documentary, I found the American theatre version to be a little too anthropomorphic, saccharine, and short on facts. How long do these penguins live? How many times will they mate? What is the bird of prey that attacks the chicks? The version narrated by the filmmakers is much better. Either film is enough to make one suspect that there is far more going on with these creatures than will ever be documented. I won’t presume to know what it is, but it fills me with wonder.
