Movie Reviews of Christian the Lion / The Great Dan Patch
Movie Review: A Gem of a true documentary.
Summary: 5 Stars
Every once in a while a video makes the rounds in E mails showing a lion reunited with his original owners after a long separation. The lion walks slowly down the rocks intent on the 2 fellows. Suddenly he takes off after them. You expect to see carnage, but instead he jumps into their arms, hugging and licking them to pieces. Christian The Lion is the true documentation of how this all came about. It is beautifully put together complete with haunting music. The whole movie length account is as inspiring as that small clip we've all seen. That particular scene does appear in this movie, but there is so much more. It's unbelievable. It is an extension of the Lions in Born Free which was also true, and a peek into the life of the amazing George Adamson who lives in the wild amongst them. Now I have to see Born Free to link it up in my mind.
The second movie of the double feature, The Great Dan Patch, is also a true rendition done in movie form of the life of a great harness racer. I watched them in a row and have had a really nice Saturday.
