      The ups and downs of the big cat family - have you lived a happy and peaceful life since then?

      After watching the movie "Tiger Brother Tiger Brother", I was very moved. There is true affection between people and tigers, and there is more family affection between tigers and tigers. The intrusion of people broke the original peaceful and warm life of the Tiger family. From then on, the tragic fate of the Tiger family went out of control. Fortunately, the screenwriter gave an unsatisfactory ending, but in reality, will the tiger family be so lucky? I think of the fate of human beings, the...

      All beings are equal

      Sad to see it. From the beginning of the film, my heart has been tugging, and I feel a little comforted when I see the end. The chief's son, Rao, was saying goodbye to San-ha, two pairs of equally pure eyes looking at each other. At this time, the muzzle of the hunter Aidan was aimed at Sanha, in case his sudden bestiality would kill him with one shot. At this time, Gomo was looking at Aidan, looked at him quietly, then walked over to him, rubbed his head against Aidan's pocket, and asked him...

      I'm sane now

      I didn’t like watching films in non-native languages. I like watching subtitles, but I don’t like Chinese translations, but I think this movie is just right. Using Chinese translations can express my emotions most vividly. If it’s in French, I don’t know if it will be achieve this effect.
             First of all, let’s talk about how I felt after watching it. After watching it, I couldn’t help crying. I am a person with a lot of emotions, especially when I watch a movie quietly, I completely...

      The warmth of animals is more touching

      It's the third time I've seen this movie, and I'm still excited to see the ending. I really admire the French people's level of filming animal scenes, even the eyes of tigers are so playful. Whether it is the innocence of the little tiger or the grief of the tiger mother, they are so touching. In the scene where the brothers meet each other in the Colosseum, how can the tiger brothers and tiger brothers have such acting skills, and the surprise when they look at each other for a moment is so...

      Human, I mourn for you to exist like this

      I often think about whether animals have joy, anger, sadness, and joy, and whether they are as emotional as humans, and what is their inner world like? It all seems elusive. Today, however, these questions seem to have been answered, a touching one.
      At the beginning of the film, the sun shines through the deserted ancient temple, and two tigers chase and play with each other. The scene seems so peaceful and quiet. The camera cuts to the auction, where pieces plundered from animals are...

      The tiger was like a cute big cat when he was a child. At the end, the tiger asked the male protagonist to eat candy, which is so heartwarming and cute~ PS. Human beings create a lot of things with their own wisdom. The stupidest and most inhumane thing is what I hate the most. Animal circus and zoo. Animals, especially beasts like tigers, will always belong to the jungle and nature, not to be locked in a cage every day and be whipped by humans and learn to jump through the fire ring!!...

      Shooting cats and dogs is very difficult. How did the tiger do it? That little Zhengtai turned out to be Haimo. ....

    Behind the scenes gags

    In order to complete the shooting of some dangerous scenes, the special effects department of the crew produced a total of 5 full-size adult tigers, 3 mechanical tiger heads and parts of multiple tiger cubs. combined with special effects.
    Because the fake tiger produced by the special effects team was so realistic, a female tiger took the fake tiger cub as a real one and refused to separate it when she brought it back to the den.
    Many of...
