madagascar's crowded, chaotic capital city. how are you doing man? base camp. >> darren: wow, that's quite a rain. i don't know. i'm not sure i can be, uh, in front of the camera. [ laughter ] >> anthony: yeah, just ignore 'em. >> darren: i'm so used to, like, controlling everything. >> anthony: darren aronofsky -- director of the films "pi," "requiem for a dream," "the wrestler," "black swan," and, as it would turn out, sort of appropriate to our location, "noah." he asks me if he could go along on a trip with us. i said, "where do you want to go?" so, madagascar. i knew almost nothing about it. i knew it was animated film that i've seen many times with my daughter. >> darren: i guess it's one of the more extreme distant places that you hear about that you know you'll never go to unless something really weird summons

you, and you're sort of that weird force. >> anthony: we're on an island in the indian ocean. >> darren: right. >> anthony: with this amazing ethnic mix. incredible landscape. something like 80% of the animals here don't exist anywhere else. >> darren: what does it mean when an ecosystem goes out of balance? what is the blowback? here you can see the blowback, you know? people have been chopping down the forest. now suddenly you don't have soil anymore and you can't grow anything anymore. it's just a really -- situation. there we go. there we go. >> anthony: an important question since we're just getting to know each other. now, you are a vegetarian? >> darren: yes, and it just sort of happened with the release of "noah." in scripture he is a vegetarian, as was adam and eve. humans weren't given permission to eat the animals till after the flood. >> anthony: all right, well we'll see who's doing better at the end of these ten days.

a little social experiment here. madagascar was settled, best we can tell, around 700 a.d. by people from what is now indonesia. later, by africans. in 1895 the french took it, killed off a substantial number of people in the process, and as they do, left behind beautiful buildings and the french language. when independence came in 1960 it was sudden and ill prepared for. continuing political incompetence has left most of madagascar's 22 million people living on less than $2 a day. do you know this place?
