The dog probably acts circles around Gere.
saw Gere in a movie about gerbils, but that's another story for another time...
> Each day, when Ueno left for work, Hachiko would stand by the door to watch him go. When the professor came home at 4 o’clock, Hachiko would go to the Shibuya Station to meet him.
I’ve got a black Maine Coon cat that does exactly the same thing.
He follows me to the door when I leave for work, then quickly runs to the window to watch me leave. When I come home, he’s waiting at the end of the driveway for me to pull in, greets me when I get out of the car and then follows me into the house.
Then the movie is even more special, because Gere is an excellent actor.
Most touching and sad dog movie ever! Should be required viewing for anyone who dumps their dog at a shelter or by the side of the road!
