What to Netflix: New DVD Tuesday
All of the new DVD releases hit stores (and Netflix) on Tuesdays. So each week in What to Netflix: New DVD Tuesday, I sort through the best of the batch and tell you what to add to your queue. In addition to the titles below, you can also rent Reservation Road (not to be confused with Revolutionary Road), and Leonardo DiCaprio's global warming warning, The 11th Hour.
The 11th Hour: We Are All Doomed
The apocalyptic documentary The 11th Hour is dreary in tone and drab in execution. It's basically a series of talking heads alternating with images of everything from industrial progress to scenes of famine to pictures of angry nature wreaking havoc on the world's helpless creatures. Every once in a while, Leonardo DiCaprio comes onscreen to try and hammer home some point, though even his involvement isn't particularly interesting.
Do Celebrity Causes Inspire You to Do Good?
This Friday, the Leonardo DiCaprio-narrated and -produced green documentary The 11th Hour opens in theaters. I'd bet the filmmakers, sisters Nadia Conners and Leila Connors Petersen, were pretty stoked to get a big name to endorse their film and their cause since this seems to be a good way to raise awareness.
Angelina Jolie is, of course, a huge proponent of using her celebrity for good, as is Brad Pitt, most recently with his sustainable New Orleans houses.

After the premiere of the 11th hour Leo and his friends moved on to the after-party. Leo looked fabulously polished last night, but he claims that he doesn't waste too much time getting ready for red carpet events. He said, "How long does it take me?
The Trailer for Leo's 11th Hour
Soon after this year's Oscars, I heard tell of Leonardo DiCaprio's environmentally themed documentary, and now the movie has a trailer and a release date of August 17. Back then, DiCaprio was described as "using the medium that he knows best to explore the problem of global warming by making a documentary that is almost a film... the feature-length film even tries to proffer solutions for restoring the Earth's ecosystems."

Environmentally friendly Leo is certainly committed to making the world a better place.

Leonardo DiCaprio Has a Rewarding Party For Peace
Leonardo DiCaprio stopped by a dinner party in Berlin last night before attending to the Cinema for Peace charity gala today, where he received an award for his work on The 11th Hour.
