RED DOG (Theatrical Release Australia 2011)

 Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.3|5.0 Starsìììì

 

Red Dog—an odd little movie—puts itself together in a series of short vignettes about a small Australian populations’ experiences with a red dog over its lifespan from the time it appears out of the desert, chooses its owner, and stays with that owner until its death. There is a definite uncanny, supernatural slant to the film that makes it entertaining and worth a watch, especially for dog lovers.
