ArmyGruntI just finished watching the film. I found it quite interesting, indeed. I'll do my best to avoid any spoiling, but I would like to note that those of you who use VUDU can also get the film. I found that while I did a Rotten Tomatoes review.
The information provided by the ecologist was exceptional. I fully appreciated the perspective by John Hume, and his passion for the animals. Seeing the animals that were victims of poaching struck me deeply. Initially, I was not in agreement with the anti-poaching team, but with further viewing I came to understand how and why his method is effective. The debate was important to the overall film's perspective, but I was disappointed to see that there wasn't any audience support. Emotion overtook any rational tendencies in far too many people, as we all see in our regular lives when it comes to those against hunting.
@Philip Glass, I would like to thank you, as many already have, for letting us into your adventure, your life, your home. I thoroughly enjoyed watching this film, and will certainly share it with others. I'll encourage others to buy it as well. While he's only 6, I think my son can learn a valuable lesson from watching it with me. Interestingly, I was already having the same emotion you showed at the lion hunt, before it even came from you. Very powerful moment, and again I thank you.
Thank you so very much for posting your view of the film and of me. I really appreciate the comments it means a lot to me. Please keep getting the word out so others will watch this film and join the discussion.
Kind Regards,
Philip
