Staring: Jeff Bridges, Lauren Ambrose and Lois Smith
Directed by George LaVoo
I'm not going to lie to you, this movie jerked a few tears from me. It wasn't really a sad movie, but there was a moment that got to me. It was mostly about how the love of and for a dog can really bring out the best in man and how strong that bond can be once established.
JB has been playing some angry characters lately. Here, as writer Jon Katz, his life is seemingly out of control. He has writer's block and is semi-separated from his wife. While angry at the world, you can really see his love for his dogs. When a kennel sends him an abused dog, he is really put to the test. I really enjoyed his performance here, very well-rounded.
