My wife mentioned that she'd like to watch a good nature documentary sometime. The problem is that we aren't looking for a series, just a stand alone one or two hour documentary. Also of course we don't want some lefty filmmaker lecturing us about how "man is destroying the environment and climate change must be stopped".
I trust Freeper opinions. Any suggestions?
Not a documentary, but “Brothers of the Wind” is a great nature movie.
Everyone loves spoilers.
I wasn’t impressed at all with ‘Into the Wild’....the kid was a fool and fully unprepared with even the basics when he decided to travel there. It’s pretty bad when a driver has to offer you boots because your not wearing any.
I’ll look for it. Thanks.
BTW not much of spoiler, it is on the back of the DVD case.
Here’s a good one that you won’t see on TV . . . .

I found Free Solo fascinating. Alex Honnold climbs El Capitan without ropes.
Microcosmos
One segment is about mole rats and another is about topiary.
A Man Called (or Named can never remember which) Pearl, sweet story about a man who spends all his spare time carving topiaries in his yard. People come from all over to see them.
Endless Summer
Honey Badger Don’t Care
Godzilla v. Bambi?
It’s not strictly a “nature” movie but I liked Reese Witherspoon’s movie “Wild”.
You’re cool.
Alone in the wilderness. Real footage of a man who lived in the alaska wilderness for over 40 years and build his own cabin from scratch. You will be mesmerized. Simply amazing
March of the Penguins (#1 - only because I didn’t see the second one). Stunning and wonderful.
Oh yes! I’ve watched that several times.
