5.0 out of 5 stars Heartfelt Story of Elsa the Lioness, February 12, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Born Free & Living Free [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I was 7 or 8 years old when I first saw this movie. I loved it so much, that I immediately had my parents get me the book. This is the touching story of how Joy & George Adamson found a young lion cub that they named Elsa. (George was a game warden in Africa.) They essentially raised Elsa in Africa as a domestic pet. Nevertheless, the couple later reached a point where it was no longer feasible to keep a pet lioness. Thus, the remainder of the story focuses on the Adamsons' efforts to reintroduce Elsa into the wild. It is a wonderful film that brought tears to my eyes the first time I saw it and every time since...& I have seen it many, many times. Virginia McKenna and Bill Travers are great as Joy and George Adamson. The scenery and wildlife scenes are spectacular. I highly recommend this film.
