Cousteau: Alaska: Outrage at Valdez
March. 25,1990On March 24, 1989, the supertanker Exxon Valdez ran aground in the pristine waters of Alaska's Prince William Sound, spilling 11 million gallons of crude oil. Jean-Michel Cousteau, son of Jacques Cousteau, takes us on a voyage to investigate first-hand the devastating impact of the U.S.'s largest oil spill. Amid the majestic mountains and ice floes of this serene setting, the leaking oil spreads like a virus staining and often killing everything it encounters. Harbor seals, sea otters, and bald eagles fall victim to the tragic accident.

Best movie ever!
Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
