Full Plot Details

It's 1914, the beginning of WWI. In White River, Ontario, en route to a training camp in Valcartier, Québec, with the Winnipeg section of the Canadian Army Veterinary Corps, Army Lieutenant Harry Colebourn, who has a natural rapport with animals, saves a black bear cub from being killed by a hunter, who killed the cub's mother. Not knowing what else to do with the cub, Harry brings her along to camp to act as the unit's mascot, who he names Winnie - short for Winnipeg. Most of the men in the unit bond with Winnie, but having such a mascot is against the wishes of the head of the Canadian Expeditionary Force's veterinary division, Colonel Barret. Barret is a tough but fair man, who may have more problems than Winnie in the form of the Expeditionary Force's commanding officer, General Hallholland, a dipsomaniac who uses his position in the army for his own vainglorious purposes. Winnie's stay with Harry and the unit is not always a smooth one, especially in trying to stay under Barret's radar. Over time, Winnie becomes completely tame, craving human companionship, which Harry realizes is a problem as the unit is scheduled to get shipped overseas to England and eventually to France to do their duty on the front lines. Sending Winnie back into the wild may no longer be a viable option, as Winnie has a mind of her own, but finding a home for her where she will get the human companionship she craves or else possibly die from not having what she needs - which means an owner that understands that she's no ordinary bear - may be a problem.

User Review - 10/10 by Emma Bthe story of the real Winnie the pooh. well sort of! is Winnie wasn't rescued and smuggled to the UK in a trunk then donated to London Zoo, everybody's favorite honey eating bear Winnie the pooh wouldn't have been created. the film has so many laughs and the bear in real life was everyones friend up till her ripe old age of 40.
User Review - 10/10 by Jim FBillled as the true story of Winnie the pooh, it is almost nothing of the sort. However, it is the based on a true story of a Canadian Black Bear, who ended up being snuck aboard a military ship to England during World War I that ended up at the London Zoo and A.A. Miline's kid named his toy bear after the Zoo bear. It was funny and light heated, but in the end showed the problems of perpetual war even 100 years ago. I highly recommend to anyone.
