	Bird (1988) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		The troubled life and career of the jazz musician, Charlie "Bird" Parker.
		Rhythm, tone, the improvisational aspects of be-bop, all of these elements go into creating a movie unlike any produced.
		Look at this film as a tribute to a man and a music, a recollection of a brilliant yet dissipated life, and a kind of filmmaking rarely seen by today's audiences.

	The Harmony of Mind, Body and Spirit with Jack Allis, feature article - The Disgrace of ABC's Bird Flu Movie
		Even if the bird flu hypothesis was 100% scientifically valid, and the spreading of it to America and the rest of the world a done deal, this movie would still be exploitive and cruel.
		Bird flu is eerily reminiscent of the AIDS scare in the 80's, and the pandemic of death that we were told was inevitable, and which has been all but forgotten because it didn't happen.
		This movie is a blatant slap in the face to the people of America, who are being treated like they are too ignorant, and too asleep at the wheel to see the truth, and to know the difference between truth and fiction, even it is dangled right in front of them.

	Laura's "Bird's in Mainstream Dramatic Movies" page (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Birds don't play nearly as great a part as I'd have liked in this movie, which is partly set in Cuba, home of the most adorable bird in the universe.
		Sure, the birds it uses are pigeons (with a few references to hawks), but Marlon Brando holds the birds his character raises with the sureness and gentleness of a real pigeon fancier, and the birds are used both metaphorically and literally to wonderful effect.
		The birds fly most unaerodynamically, the associations between the songbirds and owl are shockingly inaccurate (to say nothing of the fact that cardinals do not mate with crested blue birds, and that neither Great Horned Owls nor cardinals would ever have appeared in 14th Century Europe), but I don't even care.

	ABC News: Bird Flu Hitting TV Screens May 9
		"Fatal Contact: Bird Flu in America," an ABC made-for-television movie, airs May 9, just as scientists are to begin testing of wild birds in Alaska that could herald the arrival of bird flu in North America.
		Scientists fear the bird flu virus could evolve so it could be passed from human to human, sparking a global pandemic.
		Bird flu expert Michael Osterholm said the movie realistically portrays the shortages of goods and services, and some of the ensuing panic, that could occur in a pandemic.

	ABC TV Movie: Fatal Contact: Bird Flu in America
		The ABC Movie "Fatal Contact: Bird Flu in America" is a movie, not a documentary.
		For example, the influenza pandemics of 1957/58 and 1968/69 caused so much less illness and death than did the 1918/19 pandemic that many Americans at that time did not distinguish them from seasonal influenza and were unaware that a pandemic was underway.
		Once a pandemic has begun to spread, quarantine is not likely to be effective in controlling the spread, and instead efforts may turn to "social distancing." Social distancing includes measures to increase distance between individuals, such as staying home when ill unless seeking medical care, avoiding large gatherings, telecommuting, and school closures.

	Sesame Street presents Follow That Bird - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Big Bird is sent to Oceanview, Illinois, to live with a family of dodo birds by Miss Finch, a pesky social service worker who thinks he needs to be with his own kind (other birds, instead of the diverse Sesame Street).
		Racism, the value of diversity and the nature of family are all explored in the movie.
		She believes Big Bird would be happier with his own kind (and so does Big Bird, at first), but ultimately his adoption by the Dodos is a miserable failure.

		The movie was criticized by the poultry industry as irresponsible.

		So far, the ease with which the bird flu can mutate and be passed to humans remains in question.

	Health Officials Say Bird Flu Movie Is Fiction - Health
		DENVER -- As ABC aired an original movie about the bird flu landing in the United States, called "Fatal Contact: Bird Flu in America," the state health department sent a message to remind people that the movie is fiction, not fact.
		The movie depicts a doomsday scenario in which the bird flu pandemic hits American shores, passing from human to human as easily as a cold.
		Only if the bird flu mutates to gain that human-to-human transmission, would it be concerning, and would it cause the potential for a pandemic," Calonge said.

		It doesn't work here because the movie's supposed to be a Hitchcockian thriller and Mel's wisecracking--not to mention some implausible plot twists and ridiculous chase scenes--makes it impossible to take any of this movie seriously.
		While Bird on a Wire admittedly has its moments of enjoyment, most of the film is on a par with Gibson's embarrassing, homophobic scene with a pair of epicine hairdressers.
		I think that Bird on A Wire is very good Classic and even though it was made in 1990 it is still a huge hit for the young and old.

	Bird movie Review at The Z Review UK movie review
		The keys to Bird’s success as a movie lie in Whitaker’s career best tour-de-force and Eastwood’s free-form direction, which allows the story to flit backwards and forwards and follow a non-linear structure, as if mirroring the improvisational genius for which Parker became so famous.
		The reason for this is that the director clearly wants to focus on major turning points, such as his drug dependency, alcoholism, the death of his daughter, his rise to fame, his relationship with devoted wife Chan Parker (Diane Verona) and his friendship with fellow bebop originator Dizzy Gillespie.
		Eastwood’s ambitious movie, however, is remarkably faithful to many true-life events, such as an early jam session when a young Bird was ushered off stage during a jam session when an unimpressed drummer hurled a cymbal at him.

		Viewers should remember that the next influenza pandemic could be substantially less severe than what's depicted in the movie or the one that occurred in 1918.
		The movie does serve to raise awareness about avian and pandemic flu, and should inspire preparation, but not panic.
