It's a really cool film. I watched it two years ago (although I was slightly drunk for the last half).
The most memorable portion for me was the baby chickens. I won't spoil anything, but there was something about that scene that just threw me off guard.
I've tried to become a vegetarian twice, but I keep failing. :( |

I LOVE THIS MOVIE!!!
For a solid year or two my buddies and I would always watch this movie when we got stoned back in high school. We got different philosophies and life lessons from the movie every time! I've even watched it a few times while tripping - this movie is the BEST!
There's a sequel in production right now called Samsara. Can't wait for that either! |

| Thats one of my favorite soundtracks. I have listened to it like 200 times. Plus I have to say Baraka is a GREAT film to watch with a chick that you want to start making out with. Seriously I think it might be the best of any film for that ever. There is no dialog just sad beautiful music. Invite a girl over turn off the lights and lay on horizontal on the couch spooning her. You will be digging her out in less then 50 minutes my word ! |

| They had it playing at a club out here once. Pretty sweet. Other than that I can't really see any practical application :p |

My ex girlfriend stopped eating eggs because of it. I will come right out and say it. What they are doing I am pretty sure is they are burning the sharp points off the beaks of baby chicks so that way when they are put in cages that are barely big enough for them to fit in they don't try and commit chicken suicide by pecking themselves to death. Its really horrible .. I bet a lot of people went or tried to go Vegan after seeing that .... |

| It's a great film. I bought it a few years ago based on a few choice reviews, and it definitely lived up to the hype. It's like a cross between Planet Earth and Powaqatsi... personally I like both of those a bit better, but I guess that just makes Baraka too much of a good thing. |

It's called debeaking. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debeaking
I've wanted to be a vegetarian before this movie. I don't eat a lot of meat, and at a lot of places I prefer the vegetarian option, but I just can't get rid of teh animal 100%. :/ |

yes. i've only seen the segment that shows dead can dance's "the host of seraphim", but that part is really amazing (and awful, at the same time, but for nothing to do with the film), so i definitely need to pick this up as well. thanks for reminding me!
:D |
