I have seen this movie Rise of the planet of the apes. It is fantastic. It reminds me of a story of a real chimp who I believe his name is Oliver not sure though. He was different. Oliver walks up right was never taught to do so just does it on his own. Oliver was taken away from the people who had him and put with regular chimps, He would not have anything to do with them. Olivers faceial apperance was just abit different also and the shape of his head was different. I know they ran test on Oliver to see if there was a different DNA pattern compareded to the other chimps and I believe they said he had one extra strand makeing him who he is smarter for one thing. The chimp with the scare on his face and one whited out eye looks just like Oliver makeing me wonder if this story some what came from Olivers. Any way this movie is fantastic! If you have not seen it go. You will enjoy it!
