An Inconvenient Sequel: Truth to Power
First screened in August 2017
Directors: Bonni Cohen and Jon Shenk. Documentary about how climate change has intensified since An Inconvenient Truth and how global alliances have been negotiated in the interest of saving the planet. Interview subjects include Sen. Al Gore.

Twitter Capsule: Still a sticky wicket making this about everyone or about Gore but even when it's slick it's clearly urgent.

Second Capsule: I assume this movie's targeted viewership has just been too depressed to buy tickets but it's kind of an odd one to shrug off here in 2017.

VOR:   Multiple climate-change films shouldering the load these days, thank goodness. This one may not be remarkable but attention should be paid.
