Loved this movie The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill
Added 8/30/2009
This documentary is the most adorable, inspirational love story to watch. If you love animals such as beautiful, colorful parrots and entering the world of a homeless man whose wings are born when he takes on the task of caring and thinking of something other than himself you will truly enjoy this escape in time. These birds and their story will capture your imagination! Enjoy!

How little we know about our wildlife
Added 8/20/2009
I have watched this DVD over and over again and still anticipate watching it again. What great gifts God gave us when we gave us animals. Tragically, we all to quickly abuse them too often. What a GREAT DVD. Thank you so much.

Surprising...
Added 8/8/2009
I recently came to San Francisco and selected a few movies to watch that were made here. I wanted to see a few streets, landmarks, places of interest etc. I didn't expect much from this to be honest. I just wanted to see bits of SF. After a minute I was engrossed.
It's a super documentary. I got so much more than I was expecting. I'm marching straight up to Telegraph Hill tomorrow!
When I get home, I will make this DVD a Christmas present to myself :o)

A film for misguided idealists
Added 8/1/2009
1. Ok, so I bought into the hype about this movie... and I was duped (as happens once in a while).
2. Many have already commented on the pros / cons of this film, but ultimately it is a very sad commentary on the certain percentage of those who think this film is great, on the the film maker and on the primary human subject of this film. Why? While idealism has a proper place in all of our lives, misguided romantic notions of life are destructive to one's life as well as those close to that person as well as the greater society, simply because such notions are not realistic. And in thus in the end, such unrealistic views on life and how one should live only serves to negatively affect that individuals life. While on the other hand, those who champion and laud such folks, feel sophisticated and superior because they are "enlightened", but do so at the expense of these misguided characters. One could interpret such things as a form of exploitation or at least disingenuousness.
3. If the above ramblings are a bit too obtuse, the bottomline is--> depending on your philosophy of life, you may like this film or not. Those who are liberal will love it. Those who are conservative, will not like it. Those who don't know what those terms mean... will probably like it.

Wild About the Wild Parrots
Added 7/8/2009
You don't have to like parrots or even San Francisco to love this documentary. It tells a story about friendship, loyalty and life, that everyone can enjoy. You will want to own it so that you can watch it over and over again.
