    Corny documentary

    A truly corny documentary, but I am sure there were some amazing scenes for the people of 1940. The speaker, who seems to be the director as well, Stig Wesslén, says it took six years to make the movie; and I cannot help wondering what took six years, as there are only five or six different episodes. Anyway; badly filmed and very strange commentaries (dialogue) during the film. Anyway; compared to today's documentaries this is very bad; but in 1940 it was certainly interesting to watch bears and wolves and so on from the northern part of Sweden.

    This film cannot be overrated

    One can not measure the quality of this film by modern standards. To recognize its qualities the viewer needs to know a certain minimum about the historical context in which the film was made. Furthermore; to fully appreciate the film one has to take into consideration the technical limitations at the time as well as the very small population numbers and extremely shy behave of the Scandinavian brown bears. Knowing all of this, the film can not be overrated. For those of you who might find it interesting to know more about the film and how it was made I recommend Stig Wésslen's book "I Lapplandsfjällen bland björnar".
