The City Dark (2012)

When filmmaker Ian Cheney moves to New York City and discovers skies almost completely devoid of stars, a simple question – what do we lose, when we lose the night? – spawns a journey to America's brightest and darkest corners. Astronomers, cancer researchers, ecologists and philosophers provide glimpses of what is lost in the glare of city lights. Blending a humorous, searching tone with poetic footage of the night sky, what unravels is an introduction to the science of the dark, and an exploration of the human relationship to the stars.

As an effort in civil duty, The City Dark would earn three sturdy stars, but as a film it's lacking.

Cheney is welcome to his anxiety, but not to the specious science of societal collapse by street lamp.

Well done overall. Excellent documentation of effects on human health, star visibility, and wildlife. Would have preferred to see information on the carbon footprint involved in using all that extra energy.

: An enlightening ode to the power of the night sky and its inevitable passing if nothing changes. This is a movie all civil engineers and city planners should see.

Saw an early viewing at the Bryce Canyon Astronomy Festival, and it was great and thought provoking. This movie shows you the impacts of light pollution on animals, the stars, and people. The evidence for light pollution and cancer was very compelling.
