David Attenborough: Una vida en nuestro planeta

La misión de la vida de Attenborough en pocas palabras. Presentado de forma un poco simplista, pero gracias a esto, quizás finalmente comprensible incluso para aquellos que tienen que pensar en ello en primer lugar. (12.10.2020)

David Attenborough habla de su vida y, en el contexto de los cambios que se han producido en la Tierra en las últimas décadas, presenta un llamado claro y fácilmente comprensible sobre el tema de la ecología. La película sirve entonces no solo como una perfecta recapitulación de la carrera de este célebre documentalista, sino también como un importante mensaje sobre el estado del medioambiente en el que, en lugar de buscar a los culpables, se presentan propuestas y visiones constructivas.

David Attenborough puts an exclamation mark on the amazing series A Life on Our Planet. At the age of 94, it is a very personal confession of someone who was lucky enough to see a lot of beautiful things, and at the same time unlucky to have also seen them disappear. And you may wonder, who else but this admirable man should be explaining to humanity how stupid humans are and what can be done about it? If you only have to watch one documentary in your life, let it be this one. (05.10.2020)

Is there any other documentary that everyone should watch in the XXI century? A strong statement by a wise gentleman that will sadden you, but which holds the necessary life-giving positivism of the appealing ecologist. Most of the praise is addressed not only at the “contents”, but also at the very execution of the documentary, it’s graceful connection of objective facts with a subjective appeal, the dramaturgical coherence, its intelligibility and the “minor details” like the gorgeous music and the breathtaking images. A great job and a very important message, which may have arrived late but it can also be a beginning. (15.10.2020)

An epitaph of humanity with room for a potentially successful future happy ending that is shrouded in uncertainty and question marks. Attenborough communicates it simply, engagingly and clearly. The idea is evident. An absolutely essential documentary that should not be missed by anyone. (31.10.2020)
