Gregory Colbert's
Ashes and Snow has been linked to twice before on Metafilter. However, you can now view
10 minutes of his film as part of his Ted Talk--it's the most stunning nature footage I've ever seen. In the talk he also mentions a new concept he's developing called
Animal Copyright, which I think is long overdue.

The
Toronto International Film Festival begins Thursday. The
2004 program is one of the best they've had in years (certainly the best since the 90s). Planning on attending? If so, you may appreciate
TIFF Reviews - "the online meeting place for fans of TIFF 2004". Since TIFF is the the largest film festival in the world, most attendees (
myself included) find it very difficult to pick their films. Once the fest starts, members of the TIFF Reviews forum are encouraged to leave reviews of what they've been watching in the hopes that it'll help other people plan their 10 days in the dark.
