I thought this movie was really sad *spoiler*


I didn't know the plot going in & cried when Pencil died. Then I thought it was awful how that big dog killed the little one. I'm sorry but that's just not funny to me.

i hope you choke on your bacardi & coke!

you really shouldnt take these 'doggy' deaths at face value...no dogs died..it was part of the story....you missed one though, her nieghbour shooting his dog on a hunting trip...but thats neither here or there.

You're right, the film was sad. I don't think the dogs deaths were supposed to be funny.

I thought it had it's funny moments but overall, for me, it was incredibly sad. Not so much that the dog died but that I found truth in that animals are more loyal friends than people and I guess, to a degree, I could identify with this woman's twisted view of people and humanity.

That said, I still loved it.
