One of the best documentaries on bears you can find
The True Life Adventures series is well worth watching. Almost all the feature length films are near-musts, with the only disappointment of the seven and of the whole series being 'White Wilderness' and even that was above average despite the controversial scene. There is a preference though for the short subjects, which were more tonally focused, more consistent in quality (not a dud of the seven, perhaps a little more educational and more compact.
One of the best is the penultimate short film in the True Life Adventures series 'Bear Country'. The best since 'In Beaver Valley' and doing for bears what 'Seal Island' did for seals and what 'In Beaver Valley' did for beavers. It has all the good things of those two and also has all the good things that the series consistently had, the best aspects being brilliant. As far as documentaries on bears go, look no further than 'Bear Country' and it is a shame that despite being one of the higher regarded True Life Adventures short films that it is so underseen and overlooked.
'Bear Country' for one thing is very high when it comes to the production values. . It's beautifully shot in vivid colour and the scenery is completely natural and is gorgeous and unyielding in equal measure. The music is not used too much, fits well tonally and doesn't over-bear in terms of sound. Personally didn't detect any awkwardness.
From start to finish, 'Bear Country' is highly educational and found myself learning a lot about the bears, despite the fact that they are such familiar animals. It is also accessible for all ages, with it being one of the most light-hearted of the series without being dumbed down. As well as cute without being too much so. Anybody that already loved bears will not find themselves thinking differently. Those that don't know much about them but learned a lot, like me, are very likely to endear to them. Also liked that familiar material was given a fresh slant and that we saw different sides to the bears.
Will say that 'Bear Country' is not all comedy and cuteness. There is a little danger that shows that they do have obstacles, but it is never too dark or disturbing. Did feel that almost all the feature films in the True Life Adventures series had moments where the jokiness was overdone and that parts were a little too cute. That to me was not the case with the short films, which were more focused tonally and were more sure of their target audience. It, and all the other short films, are more serious than the feature films generally in the series, but not overly so, there are moments also of adorable playfulness. The footage is fantastic at its best and it doesn't look manipulative or staged. It is always wonderful to see a mother's love quality for any animal, demonstrated quite a few times in the series and beautifully, that was handled sensitively and relatably and saw a caring side to animals that can be portrayed as dangerous.
Moreover, Winston Hibler's narration delivery has always divided those that have watched the True Life Adventures films, personally had no problem with it in all but one. Here it is good natured and even the more deadpan delivery doesn't come over as that monotone. Actually thought that it was some of the series' most involved and empathetic narration.
Overall, wonderful. 10/10.
