If you get a chance, ...Cooper is one of my heroes.<br /><br />If you get a chance, watch his wilderness pictures 'Chand' and especially 'Grass'. They are filmed on location and are really impressive.<br />After filming Chang, Cooper and his partner Schodschack (also a veteran of both worldwars) got some award from the king of Siam because after they left the number of tiger attacks in the area thay had been filming plummeted.<br />Possibly related: there is no SPCA disclaimer in the credits to 'Chang'.<br />I don't know what they dis with the pelts.Brickmuppetnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7704146.post-30109415163421357722011-06-10T11:11:57.439-04:002011-06-10T11:11:57.439-04:00Yes.
