HACHI – A DOG’S TALE – Drama/Family (2009)
Rated G A TRUE STORY OF FAITH, DEVOTION AND UNDYING LOVE
Richard Gere is Parker Wilson, a suburban Rhode Island professor, who finds a stray Akita puppy roaming around his train station one winter night. When the grouchy ticket booth clerk (Jason Alexander) refuses to assume responsibility, Parker rather reluctantly takes the irresistible pooch home to his disapproving wife, Cate (Joan Allen) – who eventually relents after observing Parker’s enormous attachment to the lost and found pet.
Far more than your basic furry love story, Hachi – the name attached to the dog’s collar and linked to his distant origins at a Japanese Shogun monastery – touches on the uncommon loyalty of pooches for people; a devotion that has a lesson or two in store for more often than not fickle humans. Even more amazing, is that this heroic tale is all true, based on the life of an actual dog in 1920s Tokyo who never forgot or ceased to await the arrival of his master, even years after their separation.
