"Sizzle: A Global Warming Comedy" - Feature Film

Monday, May 6, 2013 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.
"Sizzle" is a novel blend of three genres -- mockumentary,
documentary, and reality. Scientist-turned-filmmaker Dr. Randy
Olson, is a fan of Al Gore's global warming movie, but asks, "Where
are all the scientists?" He sets out to make his own documentary
about global warming featuring scientists, but the only backers he can
findare a fabulously flaky couple who top their list of people they want
him to interview with Tom Cruise (not a scientist but a Scientologist --
"most people don't know the difference") and Kate Winslett ("she
does a good British accent which makes her very believable"). They
also give him a cameraman who is a global warming skeptic and
argues with the climate scientists they interview. Through a series of
interviews and an eventual road trip to New Orleans the movie delves
to new depths in an effort to understand the confusion around global
warming, which may be the most serious problem to ever confront
humanity. Or not. Read More
