Information Jacques Cousteau Collection Available on DVD for the first time, and digitally enhanced from the original master tapes, comes the opportunity to own what The Boston Globe has called ‘the most spectacular and colourful series on the air.’ The legendary Jacques Cousteau, along with the loyal crew of his famous ship, Calypso, spent a decade travelling the world’s seas, documenting the many wonders that they encountered. A pioneer in many senses, Cousteau’s technical wizardry allowed for the filming of new species and behaviour in the animal kingdom, all presented with a profound respect for the natural world. These DVD's were released in 2011 Part 2: World Without Sun Jacques Cousteau--naturalist, biologist, diver and the pioneer of underwater filmmaking--won the Best Documentary Feature Academy Award for this, his second film, in 1964. The film is a document of a brave experiment in which a team of divers, scientists and engineers attempted to live for a month in a purpose-built base rooted to the sea floor. As the crew of ‘Oceanauts’ explore the Red Sea in their metallic silver wetsuits, with Cousteau investigating the deepest depths in his custommade yellow submarine, the result is a staggering mix of nature documentary and far-out 1960s science fiction. Only this time the fiction is real. 1964 |
