When producer Laurie David walked into a town hall meeting about a decade and a half back she had no idea that what was about to follow would single-handedly reenergize the global environmental movement. But, as soon as the former United States Vice President Al Gore finished making his presentation, Laurie David had a clear goal ahead of her-to adapt Al Gore's presentation (a slide show on Global Warming replete with detailed graphs, flow charts and alarming visuals) into a film.

Along with producer Lawrence Bender, she met with writer-director Davis Guggenheim. And, the rest, as they say, is history. The resulting film, a documentary titled "An Inconvenient Truth," premiered at the 2006 Sundance Film Festival to rave reviews. It became a critical and commercial success, grossing USD 50 million worldwide and bagging two Academy Awards, including one for Best Documentary Feature.this movie is amazing.
