Hangdog

Man... this film is so beautifully made, from the writing, to its direction, editing and performance. The whole package. It was a breath of fresh air, alternating between laughter and tears on the exhales. The cast (both human and canine) delivers with authenticity and heart. It's hard not to relate to the story, whether it's your dog you've lost, someone you love... or yourself. We've all needed that catalyst at one time or another to reconnect with ourselves and the people that mean everything to us. In Hangdog, Tony is the pup who takes us there. Easily one of my favorite films of the year. I so hope it reaches the broader audience it deserves. Bravo.
