Movie on Darwin

[Jennifer Vaughn]

I recently received from Netflix Darwin's Secret Notebooks (National Geographic, 2008), a short documentary about the observations Darwin made on his infamous trip. The film's hosted by an "evolutionary biologist," Armand Leroi, and isn't the greatest quality as far as documentaries go. However, I appreciated the fact that it's not about "proving" Darwin's ideas at all. It's simply telling a story and letting the viewer see what Darwin saw. Some of you might want to check it out. -Jennifer
