The Great Invisible (2014)
19KThe Great Invisible: Directed by Margaret Brown. With Meccah Boynton-Brown, Doug Brown, Bob Cavnar, Brent Coon. A documentary on the Deepwater Horizon oil rig explosion as seen through the eyes of oil executives, survivors and Gulf Coast residents who experienced it first-hand and then were left to pick up the pieces while the world moved on.
“Some other reviewer stated that you should watch the movie Deepwater Horizon instead. Well I watched both of them and my opinion is that the movie is a good movie about the Deepwater Horizon oil rig explosion, on what really happened on that platform. But itu0026#39;s a movie, based on true events, but still itu0026#39;s a movie. On the other side this documentary is about the impact the explosion had on everything and everybody, itu0026#39;s about how justice never will be served, maybe a big fine but thatu0026#39;s about it. A big fine is like peanuts for companies like BP. Iu0026#39;m sure nobody will ever see the inside of a jail and that while people died, while thousands if not millions people suffered from the consequences of their neglect, while millions of animals and plants perished and will continue to die even decades after the catastrophe. The documentary is very well made and very informative. But I doubt it will ever change anything in the behavior of humans. Humans, the parasites of this planet, slowly destroying everything just out of greed and comfort.”
