A Man Named Pearl

Balanced gracefully on a ladder, deftly carving with his electric hedge trimmer, Pearl Fryar has the elegance and strength of a dancer. He is, by contrast, a topiary sculptor, an artist whose medium is discarded or junk plant life and whose canvas is his magical and fantastical garden. A MAN NAMED PEARL chronicles the story of Pearl’s dazzling garden as well as his extraordinary life, both of which serve as inspirations to his family, his community, and the thousands of visitors who come to experience Pearl’s world each year. The film traces Pearl’s journey from a small town sharecropper’s son to an internationally-acclaimed artist, focusing in particular on his position as the celebrated cultural and spiritual icon of his impoverished town. Now 68, the soft-spoken Pearl has just one wish for all those who wander through his living art; they must leave feeling differently than when they arrived.
Stirring and profoundly uplifting, A MAN NAMED PEARL offers a captivating window into the life a man who turned obstacles into breathtakingly beautiful possibilities.
DVD Features: Bonus CD with the Original Film Score by Composer Fred Story; Pearl Fryar & Co-director Scott Galloway Update; Composer Interview; Filmmaker Bios

5 Stars Excellent documentary
Pearl Fryar inspires not only the gardener but everyone who has ever had a dream and sought it with all his heart. It underscores the fact that with very few material possessions, our imaginations and God-given talents can lead us to places we had little idea we could be. This film is a beacon of hope; and Mr. Fryar is an inspiration.
5 Stars Praise for A Man Named Pearl!
This is one of the most uplifting productions I have ever seen. The story is heart-warming, the cinematography is amazing, and the characters are loveable. I recommend this to anyone!
5 Stars A PEARL OF JOY
This is one of the most inspirational true stories I have found. Pearl has made a difference in more lives than he could ever imagine; he certainly did so in mine! I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to be a better person.
4 Stars Very Very Nice
I saw this on HGTV last week. I also told my 90 year old grandmother to tune in and my Mom. We all really loved this movie. Pearl Fryar taught himself to do giant topiaries. He’s won awards and has a huge garden that people come from everywhere to see and walk through. The movie speaks with friends, his pastor, neighbors and the many visitors that come to see his work. He does everything himself, often working late into the night. His creations are really amazing. The only sad part is when he mentions that after he dies, his artwork will cease to exist, as opposed to other artists whose work lives on afer they’re gone. This is a very sweet movie and I recommend it for the whole family.
5 Stars Unbelievable Human Will
In todays dire economic environment, Pearl has shown us that it’s not money that spurs us on in life, but shear will and belief in ones vision and dreams. He took discarded trash heap plants and turned them into masterpieces. He is a master gardener who I hope to meet one day. Thanks Pearl. We love you!
