~~~ In ther harshest place on earth, love finds a way~~~

March of the Penguins, a French documentary about Emperor Penguins, with English narration by Morgan Freeman. I watch this movie last day and it is soo good!!! The movie is all about penguin life and how they live and their life cycle. Penguin's baby are soo cute and adorable.

However, it is amazing film featuring beautiful scenery and cinimatography, shot entirely on site in Antarticaand and very touching. Even i can fell the love of penguin to their child. Such amazing creatures. You should watch this film. Good for children too.

Info:

This remarkable documentary records one of nature’s most dramatic tales of survival as well as one of its greatest love stories. Each winter in Antarctica the emperor penguins abandon the relative security of the ocean and begin an arduous trek on ice into one of the most barren and life-threatening regions of the world. Their mission is the survival of their species and, guided by instinct, they engage in courtship, pair-off into monogamous couples and subsequently mate. When the females each produce a single egg, they make the necessary return-trip to the fish-filled seas while the males stay in the wilderness to protect and hatch the precious offspring. Filmmaker/scientist Luc Jacquet and his crew spent 13 months in the most inhospitable terrain on earth, in order to capture this extraordinary and beautiful cycle of existence. While their versatile and dynamic camerawork might make one wonder whether they are employing some digital effects, rest assured that the images are authentic and, as amazing as it might seem, it’s all true. Rated G. Narrator: Morgan Freeman. Music: Alex Wurman. Camera: Laurent Chalet, Jerôme Maison. Producers: Yves Darondeau, Christophe Lioud, Emmanuel Priou. Director: Luc Jacquet. (France 2005) 80 min.


Some of the shots -- such as a mother tenderly passing her unhatched egg to her mate to keep it warm before she goes for food, and the undersea shots of feeding taken from a small submersible—are jaw-dropping. – G. Allen Johnson
