i saw this movie alone when i be an early teen in my hometown in india and at a time when the only thing that fascinate me aside from girl be tiger . i come home after watch it and with a glazed look in my eye and want to be that bloke in the movie that befriend the tiger . what a movie and what a moment that be . the theatre i saw it in do not exist any and have give way to a shopping mall . i do not know how i would feel about it now after so many year and do not want to spoil a childhood memory by find this movie available on dvd or something similar and not find it interest anymore . i have learn from previous experience that a childhood memory be often tarnish when one travel life jade highway occasionally try to rediscover their unadulterated past by way of movie and only to find it gush innocence completely soppy and not welcome anymore . and i do not want to throw away the experience of a memory of this movie into the wind . i do not have kid and so i probably be be selfish in leave this movie in a sepia tone area of my brain and not want it on dvd . but if you be at a precocious age and want to recollect in late year memory of an endear childhood and try to watch this film ( if you can ever ) . it will be really worth it .
