Parrots in the movies

[texsize]

A while back a friend of mine watched a movie with a parrot in it.
Knowing I am nuts about birds he recommended it.

It is called “Tuesday”

The bird is CGI but based on a Macaw.
I am wondering what others that may have seen this movie think about how well the
Movement and mannerisms were done.
Even the disheveled appearance resembles a bird that has been mistreated.

It’s an interesting movie but….. don’t want to spoil it.
But I don’t agree with the ending.

I saw it. Wasn't a fan of the ending either, but all in all, yes... Interesting is a good word.
The bird's movements and mannerisms I thought were pretty well done, considering it is CGI. Maybe I'll have to prepare myself and go watch it again. Gotta be in the right mood for it for sure.

Yah, it’s not exactly a Christmas movie.

There is a book called Emerganc by David Palmer (not sure of spelling). It’s a post apacaliptic story and one of the main characters is a hyacinth macaw. The author does a perfect job describing the behavior and mannerisms of a parrot.
