My Dog Skip [VHS]

My Dog Skip [VHS] Product Overview Editorial Reviews Review Not only will the dog in "My Dog Skip"-an adorable Jack Russell Terrier-makeyou ooh and aah, but the story will melt your heart. It's sweet and well-told,good entertainment for a Saturday night with the family. The time: the 1940's, during World War II. Nine-year-old Willie Morris, playedby Malcolm In the Middle's Frankie Muniz, is not exactly the toughneighborhood kid. When his only friend, his next-door neighbor and town highschool jock named Dink, goes off to war, Willie's left alone-until his parentsget him a dog. He and his dog Skip forge a strong and lasting bond, the kindthe words "a boy and his dog" have always meant in the deepest sense. Based on a true story, the tale follows Willie Morris' own childhood memories,poignantly illustrating the struggles of growing up. If you don't own a dog,you'll wish you had one, especially if you have an only child. If you do own adog, you'll snuggle up with him after the movie is over. Muniz does a great job of making us laugh and get teary-eyed. Diane Lane isperfect as his mom, and Kevin Bacon is excellent as Willie's stern but lovingfather. Luke Wilson charms everyone as Willie's changed-by-war neighbor, Dink.Funny and heartwarming, you can enjoy this one with the whole family-again andagain.
