Marc Z. @TKDLife Mar 24, 2026 This a fantastic documentary with retrieved footage and modern commentary. I loved it See more Jul 8, 2022 Actually more credible than a number of contemporary full-length nature documentaries as it's more a humanely driven portrait with undeniably grown inspiring passion as evidently functioned in reaction to an excellent prompt, reflectively stirring societally commentative observations that absorbs us within the impeccably polished restoration towards the beautiful photography with resonance. (A-) See more Aug 17, 2020 It is wonderful to see a frank and honest documentary about the life and work of a genuine hero of biology. Jane makes very good use of recently rediscovered, archive footage of primatologist Jane Goodall showing how her work into the behaviour of chimpanzees developed into the longest study of its kind. The dedication of this inspirational woman shines through but the film doesn't shy away from showing us some of the mistakes she made and the frailties of her personality. The early footage of her in Tanzania during the 1960s that was shot by her husband, Hugo van Lawick is fascinating and director Brett Morgan allows Goodall herself to narrate her story in the open, easy manner for which she is renowned. This film will appeal to anyone with an interest in natural history as the field owes Goodall so much. The insights it gives into how her work developed makes for compulsive and informative viewing. See more Emilio T @MilloTPue Jun 5, 2020 Although valuable to recognize the effort done for years, it doesn't catch a minimum part of the complexity and interest divulgative articles have spread about Goodall work. See more May 3, 2020 Absolutely absorbing in every sense. Stunning, enlightening, funny and sad at times. I have to say one of the best movies of any type I have ever watched. Of course.....Jane Goodall is one of our planet's greatest treasures !
