If You See Only One Documentary About Terrible Dolphin Murder This Year...

The Cove is a documentary about Richard O'Barry, who trained dolphins for the TV show Flipper and has now become an activist for dolphin rights, or whatever. He travels to Japan and uncovers some pretty fucking dismal stuff about dolphin hunting practices over there. This is the hunting wolves from airplanes of 2009. Trailer, you guys:



Hayden Panettiere! There she is! The whole time I was watching this riveting trailer for what looks like a riveting documentary, (seriously*), I was like, "where is Hayden Panettiere in all of this?" She's on her surfboard. Wave hello, Hayden! Maybe we can get Jessica Alba to go out there and glue some posters to the dolphins' faces, you know, to get the word out.

I JOKE TO STOP THE TEARS.

*Seriously, this movie looks great. Or whatever a more appropriate word might be, since "great" doesn't seem to take into account the movie's obvious grimness. In any case, I'm sorry. For everything.
