I want to recommended you guys a movie....10 promises to my dog.... Japanese motion picture about a dog, "10 Promises to My Dog" Before you dismiss this movie as a small niche film, just remember that the movie was produced by Shochiku, directed by Katsuhide Motoki (Gegege no Kitaro films, Free and & Easy, Drugstore Girl) and such recognizable A-list Japanese actors as Rena Tanaka, Mayuko Fukada, Etsushi Toyokawa, Ryo Kase, and Chizuru Ikewaki. The movie itself is based on a novel by Hare Kawaguchi, which covers approximately 10 years in the life of Akari Saito, her father Yuichi Saito, and their faithful dog Socks. Storyline Akari is a 14-year-old schoolgirl living in Japan's Northern island of Hokkaido. One day, a puppy wanders into her yard, looking lost and frightened. She is a Golden Retriever with white paw markings. Akari named her Socks. Akari's mother consents to her keeping the dog but only after she agrees to keep 10 Promises to Socks . Akari enthusiastically assents and the two begin their journey of growing up together. Akari finds herself having to overcome many changes and challenges: the tragedy of her mother's death, father's sudden resignation, coming-of-age, first romantic feelings, career ambitions and her independence. But at every step, Socks is there to provide unquestioning love and support. Here is the link for this movie.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A7AbzrnpOL8 |
