Come out and see Ghost Bird, the critically acclaimed new environmental documentary from director, Scott Crocker, which will be playing at The Times Cinema, in Milwaukee, WI on November 4-7. Ghost Bird explores the remarkable rediscovery of the Ivory-billed woodpecker in the swamps of Arkansas, taking a closer look at the role politics, science and culture took in shaping the unprecedented recovery effort.
The New York Times wrote, “Scott Crocker has turned a bird-watching tale into a multilayered story that will fascinate practically everybody in “Ghost Bird,” a witty, wistful documentary...”
New York Magazine named Ghost Bird Critic’s Pick, calling it “spellbinding…a cosmic lament for the forest primeval and man’s search for environmental redemption.”
Ghost Bird features insightful interviews with David Sibley (best selling author and bird illustrator), Dr. Rick Prum (Macarthur recipient and Yale University’s Curator of Ornithology), Dr. Jerome Jackson (Biologist and the world’s foremost expert on Ivory-bills), and Nancy Tanner (the only living person to closely observe Ivory-bills).
