“David Attenborough: Wildlife Specials”A terrific collection of six wildlife specials from the BBC, with Sir David Attenborough narrating each with his typical reservoirs of controlled wonderment.
Whether weaving audiences through the ocean deep in ways that raise questions (and awe) about how the filmmakers captured certain shots of the humpback whale in its natural habitat, or laying low with leopards and crocodiles in their own habitats, Attenborough and his team reveal just how little we still know about the wild and its inhabitants.
The photography is crisp, often stunning. After seeing this, for instance, it’s unlikely that viewers ever will look at polar bears or the Arctic the same way again.
