 The 11th Hour The 11th Hour Quote: The 11th Hour is a 2007 feature film documentary, created, produced and narrated by Leonardo DiCaprio, on the state of the natural environment. It was directed by Leila Conners Petersen and Nadia Conners and financed by Adam Lewis and Pierre André Senizergues, and distributed by Warner Independent Pictures. Its world premiere was at the 2007 60th Annual Cannes Film Festival (May 16–27, 2007) and it was released on August 17, 2007, in the year in which the Fourth Assessment Report of the United Nations global warming panel IPCC was published and about a year after Al Gore's An Inconvenient Truth, another film documentary about global warming.

Re: The 11th Hour A fascinating documentary which is equal parts sobering and inspiring. Bravo, Mr. DiCaprio. Better made (and more engaging and informative) than An Inconvenient Truth, but, unfortunately, it was not first out of the gate and has suffered for it.

Re: The 11th Hour Spotted this for sale on a rack of cheap movies and grabbed it. VERY glad I did. I watched every single thing on it and wanted a lot more. I thought this was almost better than Inconvenient Truth, though I'll have to watch that again - may buy it this evening.
I read State of Fear awhile back where Crichton slams the environmental movement. He made some good points, but the more I've thought about it the more irresponsible that book seems, despite whatever valid points he makes. Not to disrespect the dead, but somehow, like Atkins, it seems fitting he died of cancer below the average life span. Taking care of Earth starts within.
