Movie weekend: Global warming and electric cars

I saw Who Killed the Electric Car? last night and it was very good. Starts off a bit slow, but has some real drama in the second half. (Yes, drama... about cars.) If you live in the Salt Lake area, you can see it at the Regency Theatres in Trolley Square. (The NYTimes reports today that Toyota is on track to surpass General Motors as the world's largest auto company, partly due to strong sales of the Prius. GM, what fools you were.)

Also, Al Gore's movie An Inconvenient Truth is still playing at the Broadway Center. Both movies are extremely informative, entertaining, and ultimately inspiring.

Have you seen either movie? What did you think?

Update: A recent YouTube parody of Gore's movie may have been created by ExxonMobil's PR firm.
