A movie about a dog that had me balling! Yes, I got a lot. Dams brokes, water gushed forward.

Tonight we started out late, to watch a movie.  We'd been working on the latest changes we're making to the kitchen, during and following a delicious meal prepared from leftovers, some fresh broiled loin lamb chops, and a fresh salad. 

We started out to watch a Netflix DVD of October Baby, but that movie got the hook after giving it a good shot and then we picked Hachi- A dog's tale.   Dan says he put it on the list.  I had picked the bomb we'd tried earlier.  
Well, maybe he did, and I've no reason to doubt... But I could see having put it on the list as well.   I love Joan Allen.  And I generally like Richard Gere.  

Hachi is a dog.  A very smart, noble dog, with characteristics that  are so deep, he suffers out of his loving devotion to the master he chose and which his master chose back.  

We were both in tears, when we weren't laughing over the delight-fulness of their love for each other, and of the love Gere's character had in his life in general.
