However, the woman in the hospital claims that she is not Aubrey Fleming, and that the real Aubrey Fleming is still in grave danger. The woman identifies herself as an erotic dancer named Dakota Moss - claiming that the fact that her appearance is identical to Aubrey's is a bizarre coincidence.

Arctic Tale

July 25th 2007 14:34

Arctic Tale is a 2007 documentary film about the life cycle of a walrus and her calf, and a polar bear and her cubs, in a similar vein to the 2005 hit production March of the Penguins. It was directed by Adam Ravetch and Sarah Robertson and is narrated by Queen Latifah. The animal characters named in the movie, "Nanu" the female polar bear and "Seela" the female walrus, are based on composites of animals in their species, as noted at the end of the film. It will be released on July 25th In the USA and January 1st, 2008 in Australia.

The footage used in Arctic Tale was filmed over the span of 15 years by married filmmakers Adam Ravetch and Sarah Robertson, along with the National Geographic Natural History Unit and others who record wildlife. They compiled 800 hours worth of clips of animals that are typically hard to catch on camera, such as the polar bear and walrus. Even though polar bears and walruses are seen in many scenes together in this film, they usually do not cross paths. According to Ravetch, they were "told by scientists that it was very rare for a polar bear to attack a walrus." But his experience made him "realize that polar bears and walruses have quite a lot in common," which is narrated as such in the film.

Throughout the film, narrator Queen Latifah makes allusions to how the rising temperature is affecting the animals in the ice kingdom. A message at the end of the animal footage notes that if the current trend continues, there will be no arctic ice remaining by the year 2040. During the closing credits, several children talk about how global warming has had a detrimental effect on the animals such as the ones in Arctic Tale as well as the people around the world.

Genre: Documentary
Directed by: Adam Ravetch and Sarah Robertson
Produced by: Adam Leipzig and Keenan Smart
Written by: Linda Woolverton, Mose Richards and Kristin Gore
Distributed by: Paramount Classics
Release date: USA - July 25th, 2007; Australia - January 1st, 2008; UK - August 17th, 2007

His Dark Materials: The Golden Compass

July 23rd 2007 14:19

His Dark Materials: The Golden Compass, or His Dark Materials: Northern Lights in the UK, is a forthcoming film based upon Northern Lights, the first novel in Philip Pullman's trilogy His Dark Materials, slated for release on December 7 2007 worldwide by New Line Cinema. The story tells of Lyra's adventure to the far north in search of her friend. The project was announced in February 2002, following the success of other recent adaptations of fantasy epics, and at $150 million is expected to be New Line's biggest budget project ever after a series of box office disappointments in the past year.

Lyra Belaqua, living in Oxford's Jordan College, is not but a young girl living among scholars. Her world may seem diverse, from physical embodiments of souls that take the shape of an animal, but similar with people around you to become friends and enemies. She is thrown into a perilous adventure when she overhears a conversation of an extraordinary microscopic particle, Dust. This particle is said to unite different worlds, and is feared by many who want to destroy it forever. As Lyra is flung into the middle of this horrible struggle, she meets wondrous creatures both big and small, and villains who are not what they seem. Gobblers, that kidnap children, will turn out in the most unexpected places. And a magical compass of gold that will answer any question if one is skilled enough to read it. Lyra's adventure continues throughout these three books, and the first is about to be told.
