Preview: Jane's Journey (2011)

Synopsis:

Following the late-career work of noted primatologist and anthropologist Jane Goodall and her struggles to unify the world under the banner of a peaceful future.

• Poster: C

Review:

Those who recognize Goodall might be interested, but they might also be given the wrong impression that this is another feature dealing with her work with primates. Those who don't know here will probably ignore it.

• Trailer: B+

Review:

A great humanitarian with a powerful message should make for a compelling documentary even if the trailer isn't as exciting as I would like.

Oscar Prospects:

It could be the rare non-traditional-political documentary to pick up a nomination with the Academy.

Release Date:

• September 16, 2011
