GasLands-- The Documentary.   1 hour and 43 minutes. 
GasLand Exposes The Dangers Of Natural Gas Drilling Called Hydraulic  
Fracturing - The largest domestic natural gas drilling boom in history has swept  
across the United States. The Halliburton-developed drilling technology of  
“fracking” or hydraulic fracturing has unlocked a “Saudia Arabia of 
natural gas”  just beneath us. But is fracking safe? When filmmaker Josh Fox is 
asked to lease  his land for drilling, he embarks on a cross-country odyssey 
uncovering a trail  of secrets, lies and contamination. A recently drilled 
nearby Pennsylvania town  reports that residents are able to light their 
drinking water on fire. This is  just one of the many absurd and astonishing 
revelations of a new country called  GASLAND. Part verite travelogue, part 
expose, part mystery, part bluegrass banjo  meltdown, part showdown.

NOTE:  While not every detail reported in the movie is portrayed  
accurately, the issues covered and 
the information presented are much more than thought provoking and  
challenging.  And, in my opinion, 
the alternative explanations that have been offered for some details also  
represent problems for our 
region, that is for the exploration, development, production and 
transmission  of natural gas from the 
Marcellus shale formation.
