Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 07/17/24 Full Review Sota S “Billy & Molly: An Otter Love Story” viewed on Hulu, is a very quaint, strongly endearing, and notable National Geographic nature documentary film. This NatGeo movie’s cinema filmography in the Scotland Shetland Islands is visually stunning, especially the overview aerial and underwater sequences, mixed with pretty solid home video and an impressive and impactful story narration, by Billy’s wife, Sally. This man interacting with wild nature documentary has impressive emotional layers for the viewer to untangle. Billy and Sally Mail are instantly likable as charismatic Scottish childless folks. REAL people. Billy with his growing obsession with the young otter, Molly, and Sally strongly grounded in the reality of this potentially dysfunctional behavior by her husband, Billy. Sally is the anchor of rational reason, yet is loyally supportive of Billy’s passion with the young female otter. Layers of love, obsession, and jealous-free loyalty for the viewer to navigate, and from the viewer’s perspective assess the whether attention Billy gives to the female otter is healthy pursuit or a dysfunctional obsession. While I disagree with some of the things Billy did with his support to this wild otter, I do admire Billy’s commitment and love for her, as well as Sally’s loyalty and support for her husband’s at times —very questionable passion. Jade, their “second fiddle” dog in this film underscores the sometimes unhealthy need for some human’s prioritization to domesticate wild animals, despite already having a pet which displays unconditional love. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/14/24 Full Review Alec B Beautifully filmed and narrated, this National Geographic special left a profound impact on me. More than just a story containing otter cuteness, Billy and Molly is about connection, the search for purpose, and rediscovering the human bond between ourselves and nature. One of the best documentaries of the year, this is a must see that feels entirely refreshing, with an angle that's yet to be explored in the genre of nature documentaries.
