March of the Penguins
I know I'm a sap for sappy movies. This one tugs at your emotions. The March of the Penguins soundtrack had a lot to do with it. Very emotional and passionate. The instrumentation made me think of Songs of the Muse by the Brobdingnagian Bards, though that CD is much more acoustic. The March of the Penguins uses a lot more New Age music compositions. Ours is more classical Celtic. Though I did hear a touch of a Celtic sound at the beginning of the movie.
Anyway, the documentary is described as a love story between penguins. But I admit, it was also a love story between movie and movie watcher. I was ready to take those penguins home with. I cried as they died. I rejoiced as they made it back to see. I laughed as the stumbled around. What a beautiful film! I was happy I went.
