...speed--perhaps within a decade or less. And while we might have a great deal of trouble adjusting to a climate that gets 2[degrees]C (4[degrees]F) warmer over the next century, an ice age by midcentury would be unimaginably devastating. The lingering uncertainty about whether our relentless production of greenhouse gases will keep heating our planet or ultimately cool it suggests that we should make a better effort to leave the earth's thermostat alone...

The film is full of casual dark humor, but what's best about it is its resistance to the conventional three-act movie structure. Its string of incident is relentless, virtually undifferentiated, like life, and contains no promise of uplifting resolution. Bringing Out the Dead is like its title--blunt, truthful, uncompromising. It is hard on an audience, even harrowing. But that's exactly what Martin Scorsese was put on earth...
