When the first episode of the six-part BBC series Walking with Dinosaurs originally aired, an estimated 1 out of every 4 Britons tuned in. What they witnessed, was dinosaurs brought to life not in the modern world, as in Jurassic Park, but in their original habitats millions of years ago. The narrator guides through the footage of dinosaurs mating, fighting, raising their young, grazing and hunting. Each episode focuses on a theme, whether it's a particular era, such as the Mesozoic, or a particular type of dinosaur, like those that ruled the oceans. Each part also focuses in on the life of an individual dinosaur or family of dinosaurs. The result is a series of short dramas that both inform and entertain. It succeeds in providing dinosaur lovers with an experience that can't be matched by mere images of paleontologists and fossils.

On January 31, 1971 more, than 125 Vietnam veterans, representing every major combat unit to see action in the war, gathered at a Howard Johnson's hotel in Detroit to heal a nation and themselves. They risked everything - their careers, their friendships, their families - to talk about the atrocities, they had committed or witnessed in the presence of officers, while stationed in Vietnam. These veterans saw themselves as winter soldiers battling against the wrongs of the war and the brutal training that had made them capable of unthinkable violence. Eighteen filmmakers, calling themselves the Winterfilm Collective, captured this extraordinary event. Rarely seen since its 1972 Cannes premiere, Winter Soldier has been called one of the most powerful anti-war films ever made and remains to this day a remarkable plea for peace.
