Paulie The Movie Parrot9/9/2020
The way I see it, if people cant provide a good home for their bird, they should find someone who can.First of all, a tip of my wing to the producers of Paulie for their impeccable taste in selecting a Blue-crowned conure as the star of their movie.
I never thought Id live to see the day As if there would ever be a movie made about any type of parrot And if there was a movie to be made about a parrot, I would have bet everything down to my gray underwear it would star one of those blabber-mouth Amazons, or maybe an oh-so-cutesy cockatoo, or one of those gaudy macaws you humans just seem to be so bonkers about. And, of course, I was pleased to see that three other types of conures were featured. Bully for them Yet, not a sun conure in sight Take that, Tinga. Hes a sun conure. Hes convinced hes the most beautiful parrot in the world. Heh, heh. Hell never live this down. ![]() They were very attached to each other, and were very good for each other. ![]() Ive been lucky. Ive only been moved once, and I came to a great situation. One of my roommates, Charlie Brown, hes been moved five times Good thing he ended up with us. He meets a lot of people, some of them nice, some of them a bit kooky. Finally, one nice lady takes him to where Paulie lived with Marie. Its not a good situation, but Paulie is one hard-headed conure. Paulie The Parrot License In ThatI think the movie director took a bit of creative license in that regard. Yet for all his talking, Paulie never utters a real Blue-crowned conure sound. I thought for sure the movie would feature at least a few of our patented hoots or honks. But no. I was very disappointed in that. So much so that I personally have only bothered to learn one human word, that being hello, and that particular word only so as to be able to remind my human companion that he really should answer the telephone. Meanwhile, I dont recall ever hearing of any human learning a single parrot word. Can you imagine a Blue-crowned conure falling in love with a Jenday No way. Its unthinkable. I mean, they have yellow heads Scriptwriters, these days. I think that Paulie was a darn good actor to be able to make that scene work. Before you know it, hes in the slammer, talking to himself to keep from going crazy. Because as bad as the situation Paulie found himself in down there in that dungeon, getting nothing but seeds to eat, not getting any attention, not being able to see outside. I hope their keepers see this movie and think to themselves about how they are treating their pets.
