For some reason they dragged there heels on the DVD release of this. maybe it was legal stuff,red tape etc.
No doubt B.P and the feds etc would have tried to put the blockers on this due to the ongoing health issues stated in this fantastic documentary.
i was particularly amazed at the deep history the documentary makers went to to make this. Especially the man and wife but most of all the wife who even suffering ill health due to filming this disaster continued with her work without the slightest moan or groan. Some would have got out of that place quick-style.
You wanna see it ? http://movreel.com/4fcrg6vvebom stream or d/l.. 10/10 for me for this historical piece of documentation.

A well-made, timely film about a continuing problem.
Dan Rather asked filmmaker Josh Tickell why documentaries are so popular in an interview at the Sundance Film Festival. The answer is that the media is letting us down. While Fox, MSNBC, and everyone in between have forgotten about the BP spill, the oil continues to leak, and Corexit continues to be sprayed, pumped and dumped into the waters of the Gulf. Americans are demanding that offshore oil permits be renewed to create jobs, while thousands of fishing jobs are being snuffed out by the worst spill in history, followed by the worst solution in history.
Josh and Rebecca Tickell interview the locals who are most directly affected by the spill, and sneak behind the scenes to catch the criminals in the act. This film should put its creators on stage at the 2012 Oscars.
