Fantastic!

Admirable film.

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

I think 2017 is exponentially worse than when you made this point. I'd like to add that folks likely make fun of it largely because they lack the courage and conviction to follow that style of life. I know I want to live like that. I have since i was a child. I'm one of the many that lack the courage to leave everything else behind to have it.I cannot think of a better death that one following by the courage and conviction to pursue the life in your dreams. If this is my only life then I feel I've wasted it following those things in front of me instead of those things I always had dreams of being.Adams was pushed to this extreme and brilliant enough to eventually realize that everything that mattered was in the world to which he retreat; utterly free.

This is something between documentary and TV show about nature. In 19th century man is falsely accused of murder that he did not commit, so he flees to mountains where he saves rears grizzly cub. Movie follows next 10 years of his life in wilderness in harmony with nature with grizzly bear as his best friend. There is no dialogues, it's made as documentary followed by first-person narrative. There's not much plot either, but it is full of beautiful landscapes and various wild animals keeping company to our narrator. Movie became very popular so they made TV show few years later. Show was more movie-like, with plot for every episode, dialogues and such. When I was about 8 or 9 years old, I remember it was shown on Sundays and me and my sister wouldn't miss it for anything. It is simply beautiful. warm recommendation to everyone who loves nature and animals.8/10

They don't make films like this anymore, sadly, since it presents such a thoughtful and gentle view of living in harmony in the wild with animals that it no doubt is called "corny" by modern cynics that are far too jaded by our coarse modern culture.Dan Haggerty debuts as James "Grizzly" Adams, and is perfect casting, though it is a shame that the narration doesn't allow him to speak very much! Great score, lovely scenery, and pleasant(though still sad) story are all pluses. Schick Sunn Classics produced this, as well as other Documentary films like "In Search Of Noah's Ark", "The Lincoln Conspiracy" & "Beyond & Back".Not yet on DVD, an oversight I hope gets corrected soon!This film was a huge hit, and led to the TV series.

takes me back to my young childhood growing up with my pets that I took in from the wild. love the show so much, just found a copy that I paid a pretty little price for, just to able to show to my two young children. two thumbs up for grizzly adams, except the last show- the capture of grizzly adams- TERRIBLE
