My Dog Skip - the movie!

For Willie Morris (Frankie Muniz), an only child growing up in 1942 Mississippi, liking books more than football and being too small to intimidate school bullies leads to loneliness.

While he dutifully unwraps birthday presents containing bow ties and classic literature from parents and grandparents, what he really wants is a dog. His father Jack (Kevin Bacon), who has become quiet and stern since he lost his leg in a war, has repeatedly rejected his request. Consequently, when Willie's mother Ellen (Diane Lane) appears with a pooch in a package, Willie's surprise is only exceeded by his father's disdain. Though Jack and Ellen disagree, the dog soon to be named Skip, wins in the end.

Thanks Parents Previews!

Why in childhood and youth do we wish time to pass so quickly - we want to grow up so fast - yet as adults we wish just the opposite?

Like all dogs, Skip was colorblind. He made friends easily with people of all races and origins. The town was segregated back then, but as we know, dogs are a whole lot smarter than people.

I almost lost old Skip that day. Even as he was sleeping on the operating table, he was still teaching me. That day, I became a young man.
