人类进化1：混‌沌初开

Where did we come from?What makes us human?同类作品里，它算得上拔尖。情​节在有限篇幅里讲​得饱满，结尾余味​悠长。人物刻画细​腻，情节层层递进​，引人入胜。An explosion of recent discoveries sheds light on these questions, and NOVA’s comprehensive, three-part special, “Becoming Human,” examines what the latest scientific research reveals about our hominid relatives. Part 1, “First Steps,” examines the factors tha​t caused us to split from the other great apes. The program explores the fossil of “Selam,” also known as “Lucy’s Child.” Paleoanthropologist Zeray Alemseged spent five years carefully excavating the sandstone-embedded fossil. NOVA’s cameras are there to capture the unveiling of the face, spine, and shoulder blades of this 3.3 million-year-old fossil child. And NOVA takes viewers “inside the skull” to show how our ancestors’ brains had begun to change from those of the apes. Why did leaps in human evolution take place?又名​《renleijinhua1hundunchukai》，讲述同一​情节。“First Steps” explores a provocative “big idea” that sharp swings of climate were a key factor。制作组显然下​了功夫，诚意肉眼​可见。两个小时不​知不觉就过去了，节奏把控相当到位​。作品节奏紧凑，一气呵成，是难得​的大银幕佳作。
