Disaster By The Bay: The Great San Francisco Earthquake and Fire of 1906
directed by: Ken Joy
Disaster by the Bay: The Great San Francisco Earthquake and Fire of 1906, a film by Ken Joy, is destined to be the definitive documentary of the greatest natural disaster ever to hit California. Never-before-seen footage, shot just minutes after the quake struck on April 18, 1906 at 5:13 a.m., combined with thousands of rare and previously unreleased photographs, and recreations of eyewitness accounts written by those who survived the disaster, culminate in this hour-long epic that chronicles the horror, the aftermath, and the heroes who survived it. Ken Joy's astonishing direction takes us into the heart of the vibrant city that was San Francisco at the turn of the century. The love of the Californian for his State, and the devotion of the San Franciscan to his city, were only intensified by the disaster of April 18, 1906. It is a matter of common observation that hardships and suffering wed people to their native land. Indeed, the fear had been expressed that in a country so fair as California, the people, pampered by luxury and enervated by ease, would ultimately lose the virile qualities of citizenship which makes a nation great. There were indications here and there of the evils which flow from uninterrupted prosperity, but the privations of a few brief months hardened every fiber, and softened every heart. Astonishing footage and photographs take us beyond the disaster by the bay, and give us a first-hand glimpse of what life was truly like in turn-of-the-century San Francisco.

Antarctica - An Adventure of a Different Nature (Large Format)
starring: Alex Scott
directed by: John Weiley
True to the IMAX tradition, Antarctica is replete with breathtaking aerial and underwater footage of the earth's highest, coldest, and driest continent. Most folks' TVs are 4,500 times smaller than an IMAX screen--too small to duplicate the acrophobic-stomach sensation that is the hallmark of the IMAX in-theater experience. All the same, like most IMAX movies, Antarctica has some of the best production values on film today. The story begins with a flock of penguins above--and below--water, and moves to gargantuan underwater ice sheets and then to a look at Antarctic climatic changes. Watch scientists locate and extract ancient ice to analyze preserved bubbles of ancient air, as well. Explorer Robert Scott makes an important contribution with his appealing voice and serene, well-articulated narrative. The DVD's special features include Spanish and French language tracks, subtitling, and Internet links if you use the disc on your computer. --Erik Macki
