EDIT:: SORRY!! Meant to put this in the Movies Section. Sorry for putting it here.
During Psychology class this evening, one of the students started promoting the 2011 documentary: Project Nim, and stating how amazing and insightful it is. They completely condoned what had happened to the chimp, purely for humankind and couldn't speak highly enough of it. Project Nim tells the story of a chimpanzee taken from its mother at birth and raised like a human child by a family in a brownstone on the upper West Side in the 1970s. I thought it was disgusting and told them Earthlings was far more insightful viewing.
