REVIEWED By Marjorie Baumgarten, Thu., Nov. 11, 1999

The master of cutting-edge skiing films, Warren Miller, commemorates a half-century of winter sports action. In honor of his 50th skiing and snowboarding film, Fifty presents a fusion of some of the greatest moments ever captured on film by Miller’s award-winning camera crews. Some featured locales include Innsbruck, Austria; Chamonix, France; Cotopaxi, Ecuador; and various U.S. spots such as Vail, Breckenridge, Snowbird, and Sugar Bowl. Fifty also features contemporary artists such as Barenaked Ladies, Collective Soul, Counting Crows, and the Dave Matthews Band.
