`My Dog Skip' hits close to home.(The Orlando Sentinel)
Having 10,000 channels on your TV sometimes pays off.
I have the entire lineup offered by my cable company, not the digital stuff but everything else, including all those pay-per-view things I've never used.
So I can often catch up on all sorts of movies, including documentaries, I don't see in theaters. (Theater screens will never be replaced by TV screens for me; a theater screen is still the best place to see a movie made for a movie screen_except of course, it gets harder and harder to put up with candy-unwrapping, loud-eating, weak-bladder moviegoers. But I don't mean to be judgmental.)
And, of course, as always, I digress.
So it was that I watched "My Dog Skip," a movie I had missed when it played in theaters, on one of the premium channels the other night. Actually, this is a small movie that plays well on a TV screen.
The film is based on a memoir by the late writer Willie Morris and has to do with how a mere (and wonderful) dog changed a shy, unpopular boy's childhood for the better.
Frankie Muniz, the title character in the sitcom "Malcolm in the Middle," plays the boy, and the dog from Frasier plays the title character of the movie.
