5.0 out of 5 stars A little tearjerker, February 2, 2000

This review is from: Dog of Flanders [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I first saw this wonderful film in the 1970's and cried all the way through it. A young boy named Nello and his grandfather live a very poor life, and when they find a wounded dog take him in and keep him. When the grandfather dies (more tears! ) Nello and dog have to learn "how to live". Nello's idol is the painter Reubens, but he does not have any money to study so he is befriended by an artist, who helps to realise his dream.

This is the most heartwarming film which will make you feel very humble.

I love the Dog of Flanders. I saw the movie of the same title made several years ago. Then at my library I found this older edition and was so pleased when I found it still in print and available .... The older edition is different abit from the newer version; however I love both stories.
It is a classic of the highest standards. The original book has a sad ending and I am glad the movies are more joyful!
Excellent movies for children to see, especially any children with artistic talent! Enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Dog of Flanders, June 14, 2000

This review is from: Dog of Flanders [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This was a wonderful motion picture. Young David Ladd was great as the little boy Nello. Donald Crisp was always a wonderful actor and Theodore Bikel was especially good as the artist who befriends Nello. This is a movie for the whole family, which is almost unheard of these days. I highly recommend it.
