 Rating:  - Wonderful family filmMy two-year-old has an obsession with elephants so I did a little research to try and find something for her to watch besides Dumbo and Babar. I came across this video and actually ended up getting this and Born Free, which has the same actors. To be honest, we never made it through this movie the first several times we tried to watch it -- it seemed a little slow in the beginning. However, once we had watched Born Free five hundred times we decided to give this one another try and I'm so glad ... Read More: Rating:  - A film for people who like ElephantsHaving watched Born Free, which has the same director and lead actors as this film, I was looking forward to watching An Elephant Called Slowly. Although Born Free chronicled part of George Adamson's life, he actually appears in this film for a brief cameo. We also get a brief glimpse of the lions who appeared in Born Free. The stars of this film, the elephants, are just as interesting. We get a good introduction into elephant behavior. The characters, the actors portraying themselves, also travel ... Read More: Rating: - As the title says, It's slow... but still charmingAlthough it's in docudrama style, several of the characters play "themselves" in this charming African tale about a baby elephant named Slowly. Real-life married acting couple Bill Travers and Virginia McKenna (who played George and Joy Adamson in the 1966 film Born Free) return to Kenya where they meet up with George Adamson (portraying himself in all his oddball glory) and his cavalcade of exotic animals including cheetahs, lions, rhinoceroses, buffalo, ostriches, and pachyderms. Bill and Ginny find ... Read More: Rating: - Poli, PoliAt last! At last! I have waited 20 years to own this movie! I saw it the last time it was on TV (and on crackly home recording since). The unofficial sequel to Born Free, Slowly is the story of Bill Travers' and Virginia McKenna's return to Kenya after falling in love with the country when filming Joy Adamson's story about Elsa the lion cub. Whilst house-sitting for a friend, they find themselves the neighbours of three unruly elephants who, according to the local gamekeeper, have "adopted" them. ... Read More: Rating: - Great for young children!My 2 year old daughter loves this movie! It is great for teaching her the names of all the animals and talking about the wonderful scenery. Nothing bad happens and there is no profanity, etc. I highly recommend this movie as something to watch *with* your child to talk to them and experience it with them. It is really too simple for an adult to watch, but fabulous to train your child learning about the world. |
