Inconvenient Truth
An Inconvenient Truth is put together very well. It was made in such a way that the viewer is led to trust Al Gore. Because he did run for president, he is a well-known person. In addition to already knowing him, the film provides a little bit of his background. This allows viewers to get to know him better and trust him. The film was made this way to help get the message across and to get people to believe and support the message. Another way Al Gore helps make the message seem more appealing is that he makes some attempts at humor. This was seen when he was showing the graph of the past ice ages and he uses a lift to get to the top of the graph where it shows the future. Even though the film is just a compilation of his power point presentation, Gore finds ways to make it interesting while remaining factual and formal. If I had to guess, the Inconvenient Truth probably convinced a lot of people to change their habits of using so many resources because they harm the environment.
