Movie Reviews of Christian: The Lion at World's End
Movie Review: Great to see this full documentary!
Summary: 4 Stars
I was captivated by the clip on YouTube of Christian the Lion. I was excited to get this full version of the documentary. I'm a long time fan of George & Joy Adamson and enjoyed seeing this documentary film I had not seen before. This will be of great interest to other fans of George's life's work or those who just love lions and Africa.
Summary of Christian: The Lion at World's End
The astonishing true story of a zoo-born lion who found himself in the pet department of Harrods, then the cellar of an antique shop in Chelsea, and ultimately the wilds of Africa.Motivated by compassion and a sense of justice, the internationally respected team of Virginia McKenna, Bill Travers and George Adamson set about returning Christian the Lion to his natural habitat in Africa. This film, first seen as a cinema release, charts the complete story from fashionable antique shop, to Bill Travers and Virginia McKenna's home in the Surrey hills to a life with wild lions in Africa, under the watchful eye of lion-man George Adamson, proving that even after four generations in captivity, wild lions are born to be free.
We also meet lions Super-Cub, Boy, Katania, Juma, Jessica, Mona, Lisa, Butch of Holland and Mary of Israel.
Be prepared for laughter and tears in this of heart-break, joy and ultimate triumph over adversity. Christian: The Lion at World's End is simply one of the greatest wildlife films you are ever likely to see.
