March of the Penguins

I (finally?) watched it today, and all I can say is that this tale of life, love, death, hate, friendship, jealousy, hunger, patience, and loneliness was more eloquent and more moving than quite a few of the more "human" tales that I have watched lately. It is a tale of grandeur and victory, and of a journey to a "place so extreme that it supports no other life". It is a tale of those that risk starvation under the harshest conditions of icy winds and treacherous waters, a march of hundreds of miles, and a struggle that begins with the perfect mate ... all to find love.
