Many people rightly guessed that Leonardo DiCaprio would win this year's Academy Award for Best Actor. Many also surmised that his acceptance speech will reference the cause he's been championing for sometime now: reducing climate change. DiCaprio, himself one of this Planet's most visible public personality, ropes in the who's who of cultural figures to undergird this 'very inconvenient truth' we are facing (didn't use that phrase accidentally by the way).
However, to say that Leo has used his influence to spread a personal propaganda would be doing the whole point of the movie an injustice.The documentary shows us on location evidence of the partial ruin of our planet. These claims are reinforced by experts in various related fields throughout the World.
The cinematography is occasionally hypnotic, the message is visceral and the results are deeply thought provoking. While the implications of the matter being discussed are Universal, one gets the feeling that the team behind the film is consistently telling us that change begins from within. This must be the message everybody who watches and believes in this film must take away. When we do our part, the World changes.
I sincerely ask those who have watched this or are planning watch not to get distracted by accusations of political or other biases on part of the filmmakers. The topic of this documentary is something which affects you, me and the generations that will follow us. It's time to come together, introspect and act.
