An Inconvenient Truth
An Inconvenient Truth is a 2006 American concert film/documentary film directed by Davis Guggenheim about former United States Vice President Al Gore's campaign to educate people about global warming. The film features a comprehensive slide show that, by Gore's own estimate, he has presented over a thousand times to audiences worldwide.
The idea to document Gore's efforts came from producer Laurie David, who saw his presentation at a town hall meeting on global warming, which coincided with the opening of "The Day After
by tackling it in an incredibly effective way – choreographing a fluid dance between information and art."
- Drew Gibson concluded in "Daily Kos": “Ultimately, "deepsouth" succeeds in the only thing a piece of art need succeed at: it speaks to people. Documentaries like "An Inconvenient Truth" or "Bowling For Columbine" don’t speak to people. They speak at people. In "deepsouth", director Lisa Biagiotti and the entire cast & crew of the film do what southerners do best
