In Reply to: Any recommended films along the lines of Baraka?
If you like the "around the World in a film" theme you might like some of Wim Wenders films too; still with Baraka et. al you can't beat the eye candy of a 70mm format

Follow Ups:
but has mixed reviews as it is supposed to use a lot of digitally enhanced images; which has disappointed some viewers familiar with the earlier "analog" films (tho' I've yet to see Naq, I have the soundtrack)
Microcosmos has also drawn flak as being somehow "staged", so go figure
Thanks for the mention of "The Living Sea" and "Everest", I will check them out!

Thanks, it looks like a sequel is in the works! I must admit, I do love big-screen eye candy, call it a weakness. (Artful eye-candy that is, not junk.)Some of the IMAX sourced DVD's (via 35mm) are beautiful, but it seems that only a minority of the cinematographers make full use of the format. I'm learning it's more than just a big negative; that big negative gives you the ability to do special things. McGillivray's The Living Sea and Everest are two notable exceptions, they wind up in the player every couple of months. (The Living Sea is worth owning just for the Coast Guard and surfing sequences!) I'm still looking for other IMAX DVD's in the same league--know of any?
