2. Do you ever watch animals in old movies?

In old movies, and even older paintings, the people are strikingly different from us, in their hairstyle, clothing, speech, walk, behavior. They always seem foreign to us, even if the movie is only a few decades old. But the animals always look and act the same as they do today. They live outside our bubble of human trappings and status and we love them for it.
