Unpleasant depiction of captivity
12 October 2013
Warning: Spoilers
This is one of the first animal documentaries. Made at a zoo, we see a lion getting his meal. Unfortunately, this film also depicted to me how an animal as strong and majestic as this (or any other) should not be put in a small area behind bars. Anyway, even with this obstacle, he was still beautiful to look at and he was especially impressive when he got his meal. I just wish the zookeeper or whoever was feeding him wouldn't be annoying and trolling him repeatedly throughout these 30 seconds. I have to admit I never heard of Alexandre Promio before watching this movie and now I see he has made quite a few more films (of course not in the dimensions of Lumière, Méliès or Guy), but still not too bad. What a pity this one is possibly his most famous work. Not recommended.
