I was surprised to see parrots in this film, http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0237572/ called The Pledge. It was a difficult movie to watch and it was extremely bizarre, but was finished more out of curiosity than anything. There was a scene with a few happily chirping budgerigars.

In Dumb and Dumber, http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0109686/ there's a few scenes about a little blue Budgie, but it's "killed" by a "criminal". The movie doesn't show that, it just shows a man grabbing it and viewers assume that's what happens.

Best parrot movie ever made is hard to find because it is over 50 years old but it is called: Bill and Coo.

It is about a town of budgies and lovebirds that get attacked by a crow. The birds are all real and all trained. At the time, it won film awards.

You might be able to find it with a search on the internet. I highly recommend it, especially if you like prop training

Thx
