Maybe that s Why a m directs the Bear a refreshing change of Benr r in it us to a a and tabulations of an orphaned 1885 u Law is of the Canadian Rockies circa of he Jacc us Ninaud who also fictionalized one fire rac5s 8reatest discoveries in quest for Berru ? a n 3 lot of words to Tell a Story. The i Kent its a under 6ck total words of dialogue a wind yet ill says More than and 10 of Thean i Eric the pcs pass or your Typ bad a theater fare these Days. Who is civr5 3 re i be Teddy Bear named Douce a Rock slide r 10 l we l my Mon a Hill one Day when Vigil Over his is Era distraught cub keeps a stir again he t a i 1 so in realizes she in t going to _ Bains he timid a sets off on his own chasing butterflies and cavorting with Pond frogs. Meanwhile in another part of the Woods a huge male a magnificent adult named Bart is munching on berries when he s shot by Hunters. The enraged animal storms through their Camp and mauls their pack animals and the ignorant pair Jack Wallace and Cheky Karyo swear to Hunt him Down. Douce spies the hurting Bart trying to Salve his wound in a Small Pond. The lonely cub whines for acceptance and gets it from the older Bear by gently Licking the blood from the wound. Bart appoints himself the cub s Friend and protector and they head off for More Woodland fun. Bart shows Douce How to catch fish in a Stream Douce eats some Field mushrooms and has wild dreams when Bart meets up with a female Douce watches him do what comes naturally to adults of any species. And All the while the Hunters Are on their Trail inching Ever directs some of the most eloquently wordless movie scenes i can Ever recall seeing and he s aided greatly by the thundering score performed by the London symphony orchestra and the gorgeous rugged scenery actually filmed in Italy s Dolomite mountains not the Rockies. Nor does it Hurt that the bears Are better actors than a number of humans who come to mind. Based on the 1916 novel the grizzly King by american naturalist James Oliver Curwood the Bear is already one of the biggest grossing . Films in history racking up huge numbers All Over the world. Of course it met with a lukewarm reception in the states where too Many viewers Don t know How to take a movie that does t have any car crashes or firefights with automatic weapons. But this is an exciting nature film one that can be appreciated by both adults and kids especially kids from around 7 to 12 years old As a sort of introduction to the Sanctity of nature and the danger posed to it by Humankind. Aynaud does a Superb Job of reminding us How a film can be adventurous and engaging without relying on Gimmicky special effects. The Bear easily gets 3 i stars on a 4-Star rating system.
