So The Dog Repeatedly Dies? Who The Fck Wants To See That?

Why would anyone want to see a movie where the dog repeatedly dies? What a stupid plot for a movie. Unless their desire was to depress the sht out of people. I don't know how you feel when your dog dies but I had a dog for 14 years that was incredibly loyal and just amazing. I had to put him down July of 2015 when he was having kidney failure and was utterly devastated. I miss that dog everyday. So yeah not sure why anyone would want to see this.

Hollyweird thinks it's cute, apparently.

I hear the dog confessed, though.

That is how the book was made. And if you want emotion in the movie you have to do sad things.

I agree; it's quite a masochistic plot.

SPOILER: Very happy ending that also makes you cry happy tears, but not enough to redeem the sadness that precedes it.
