New DVD releases
by Maxine
Check out these hot new releases from Amazon which are now available at the Library:
The Water Horse: Legend of the Deep. Based on a novel by Dick King-Smith, author of The Sheep Pig from which Babe was adapted, this sweet and often visually spectacular story is about the friendship of a lonely boy with the Loch Ness Monster.
Sense and Sensibility, BBC production, 2008.
This is a charming new adaptation of Austen's novel in which the eternal conflict between money, status and love again play out.
Six Degrees Could Change the World, National Geographic. (on order)
By some, this documentary can be seen as "a non-fiction counterpoint" to the feature film, The Day After Tomorrow. Based on Mark Lynas's book, Six Degrees: Our Future on a Hotter Planet, this film, narrated by Alec Baldwin, shows scientists and ordinary people who are already experiencing the effects of global warming.
