Bearskin – An Urban Fairytale (2000)
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
If you can accept the idea of a Portuguese city standing in for London, you may just have no problem with the other weirdness dished up in this arty 'urban fairytale'. On the run from hoodlums, Lowry dons a bear-suit and prowls around Waits's Punch and Judy show; Bill Paterson as a guardian angel is a mite easier to accept than some of the film's other self-indulgent peculiarities.Author: NF
