In Reply to: For the 'Heavies' on this board: how can you take documentaries seriously? posted by Guy on December 2, 2005 at 03:08:48:
As with any film, you need to look at a documentary's purpose. If it's to educate, then it had better cough up some accuracy. If it's to generate interest in a subject, accuracy is secondary to engagement.Look at Jacques Cousteau's early documentaries on underwater life, they were a bit short on facts but loaded with beauty and style, and generated quite a bit of interest (and money) for oceanographic research. The same could be said of current light science films such as Microcosmos.
