Al Gore finds life after the politically crushing embarrassment that was his tenure as vice president and, frankly, it's unlikely he will experience another point as high as his achievement in this profound, engaging and, mercifully, clear documentary on the consequences of our complacent greed. That ‘An Inconvenient Truth' provides little in the way of true revelations pertaining to the earth's (humanity's) looming ecological demise, and ignores some of the more profound problems of trapped carbon and methane being released into the atmosphere, doesn't distract from the importance of this documentary, in fact its very viewer friendliness can only enhance our chances of self-determined salvation. ‘A swift swig of moonshine for me, put the rest in the tank and let's get the hell out a dodge'. Won the Oscar for Best Documentary feature at the 2007 awards.
