Thanks for posting this. I just watched all of it. By far the best. Seeing the chimps get polio was really sad.

Does it try to make her out to be a force for good?
Edit: Downvote me if you want, but she introduced diseases that have rapidly accelerated the death rates of those chimps, increased the aggression between the different groups of chimps, and increased the level of conflict between the chimps and the locals by just being a huge pain in the arse to them.

Probably should have gotten some education before condemning them to death then.

I have always been a large fan of Goodall myself but I am open to looking at data that isn't favourable. Do you have links to data that supports what you're saying here?

My buddy and I went to the local theatre in 2018 to see whatever movie was there, and the next showings were Three Billboards and this movie called Jane. Three Billboards seemed kinda heavy so I looked up what Jane was about and decided to see that on a lark. Very glad we did.

When was this footage ever lost? It's always been available.

it was lost in the 60s. It may well have always been in the archives but it was filed away badly or mislabeled in a move or what have you.

If you lose your keys and then you find them, they were lost to you, but they were always available.
"Drawing from over 100 hours of never-before-seen footage that has been tucked away in the National Geographic archives for over 50 years", so the footage was lost in the archives and then found again. Misplaced, lost, whatever, it's semantics, what matters is it's footage that no one has ever seen before.

That's the point. I saw the same footage 20 and 30 and 40 years ago. Something isn't lost to the viewing public because you've personally never bothered to look for it.
mr_ji t1_j43e8ol wrote
No, it wasn't. I saw it in Nat Geo programming 20-30 years ago.

not all the footage by the videographer was lost... he had other footage used in many other chimp docs and Jane Goodall docs etc

I highly doubt you saw the "same" footage if it's National Geographic saying it's been in the archives for 50 years. I'm gonna trust them on this one.

I’ve seen other documentaries on Goodall but this one really captures the story in a way I’ve never experienced before (must be the inclusion of the lost footage). Stunning cinematography.
