POLLY WANTS A DVD

By Film Threat Staff | November 9, 2005

Coming to DVD December 27th is the documentary THE WILD PARROTS OF TELEGRAPH HILL about a flock of memorable parrots on Telegraph Hill in San Francisco.

The most beautiful personality in movies today is not some Botox-injected starlet or airbrushed tween queen, but rather a gentle, aging San Francisco hippie named Mark Bittner. With the patience and love of a saint (Saint Francis, to be specific), Bittner has been the protector, historian and provider for a flock of wild parrots who’ve become a highly colorful part of the city’s ecosystem.
