Featured review
The real man behind March of the Penguins
Despite Luc Jaquet 's brilliant idea of making a documentary on the penguins, people should know that only LAURENT CHALET Director of Photography and assistant JEROME MAISON spent one year shooting the film completely alone and almost died there.
Luc Jaquet, quoted as the Director, was in fact never behind the camera.
Laurent CHALET shot almost 100% of the entire film while Luc Jaquet stayed in France, waiting one year for the return of CHALET and MAISON to start editing the footage that he discovered at the same time.
Laurent CHALET, is the real man behind the Penguins.
