Originally filmed for IMAX theatres, India: Kingdom of the Tiger captures the myriad colors, sights, and sounds of India perfectly while recounting the story of Jim Corbett, son of a British postman, who initially earned fame as a tiger hunter, but later committed his life to saving these magnificent creatures and thus became known as India's first tiger conservationist. Interweaving the history of India's relationship with tigers from the Mughal era to the present, this gorgeous documentary--in true IMAX style--takes viewers soaring over high mountain peaks and winding their way through the jungle until they come face to face with the wild Bengal Tiger. DVD bonus features include a commentary track by the director and cinematographer, and the National Wildlife Federation's 40-minute documentary Tiger, making the $19.99 price a very good value.
