5 out of 5 stars A beautiful inspirational film.......2005-11-19

Gorgeous and insightful, Kelly Duane's film is as informative as it is beautiful. This astute profile of environmentalist David Brower takes us on a journey through a key juncture of the evolution of the environmental movement. Monumental is a very important film for everyone to see--especially for young people who care about the wilderness.

5 out of 5 stars Don't miss it!.......2005-10-07

Monumental is essential-- not only for those who value (and worry about) the beauty and vulnerability of the outdoors, but for anyone looking to spend some time with an inspiring story and some really first-rate documentary filmmaking. Seriously, don't miss this! (And check out the fantastic soundtrack as well!) I look forward to Duane's next move.

5 out of 5 stars Amazing film--Get Inspired Today.......2005-10-05

We could all use a little environmental inspiration right now, and Kelly Duane's Monumental is so beautiful, so moving, so in touch with what's wonderful about the natural world it's almost impossible to imagine someone watching it without renewing his or her love for the earth. Duane had the brilliance to use Brower's original footage to show us how he saw the planet first-hand. Then she also had the vision and amazing taste to set that film to music that miraculously makes Brower's vision feel both cool and sublime.

5 out of 5 stars Beautiful and Inspirational.......2005-10-05

Moving beyond the political partisanship of today, Monumental is a fascinating documentary chronicling the birth of the modern environmental movement in America using David Brower's own footage. Duane creates a powerful portrait of why stewardship of the environment matters beyond today's soundbites, and chronicles the success of the early leaders at preservng some of the most important monuments in the West, as well as some that were inevitably lost. Anyone who has witnessed the beauty of Point Reyes and vast parts of the Sierra Nevada will recognize in this footage what was saved and what could easly have been lost. Totally inspiring! Great for students!

5 out of 5 stars Incredible film!!!.......2005-09-17

If you like cool old surf films with a great soundtrack, then be sure to pick up this moving environmental equivalent. If only all documentaries were this educational, inspiring and entertaining!

5 out of 5 stars Beautiful scenery!.......2005-01-14

This DVD was one of the best I have seen! Beautiful scenery and picture quality was superb!! I HIGHLY recommend this to all!!

1 out of 5 stars For a DVD, very mediocre.......1999-10-18

Mediocre transfer. Have seen VHS tapes quality and broadcast tv that were much better. Appears that they simply transferred an old VHS copy to DVD. The narrator's voice comes out of the left speaker only, faintly from the right. Virtually no surround effects, no natural sounds and only music and the man's voice. Very disappointing since the sceneries were beautiful shots.

    Description

    America the Beautiful: The National Forests of Utah, is a wonderful montage of Utah's magnificant western terrain; from the dry desert ground to the grand peaks and mountaintops and the beautiful animals of the wild. A medley of spectacular footage featuring some of Utah's fifteen million acres of national forests that spread along the state's 53 million acres of land with inspiring views of many of the 48 species of trees that cover a third of the state.

    While being entranced by the lovely images moving across the screen, the background is set to the superb sounds of classical music by Rachmaninov, Gounod, Adam and other distinguished and renowned composers. The breathtaking scenes and delightful classical sounds are a pleasure for the eyes and ears.
