AboutMike Hensel Expertise I will try and answer all questions dealing with television...show names, plots, actors, roles, networks, etc...US shows primarily; not real knowledgeable on TV from other countries...I lean heavily into past, more so than current, television...and, my knowledge dealing with "reality" shows is limited, due to the fact that I really can't stand the genre (my apologies to all the "Reality" fans out there...)
Experience Years of watching and cataloging television shows
Question I saw this movie on tv when I was five years old and couldn't finish it. I ran to
the kitchen crying when a father ties a rope to the neck of his sons dog. The
crazy part is that the boy is up in tree with an old lady bird watching. There is
this unbelievably tense(to a five year-old) sequence where the kid sees his
father in a truck towing a boat through the binoculars. The camera flashes
back and forth from son to father as the father launches the boat, tiesa rope
around the dogs neck. there is a rock tied to the other end of the rope and
the father throws it all over board. The boy sees this progression through the
binoculars and as he panics so do I. The last thing I saw before turning it off
and running into the kitchen was the dog under water fighting to come to the
top and bubbles.
I know the description is long but I have been trying in vain to find out the
name of this movie along with other details for over 17 years now. Any help
would be great. Thanks, Jason
Answer I like long descriptions, Jason, it usually better for me; however, I'm not familiar with that scene...
You say you saw it when you were 5 years old; please tell me what year that was... and anything else you might remember about the time frame, i.e. was it during the summer, winter, day, night; anything you might remember...
Since this was not a private message; perhaps my fellow experts can chime in if they recall this...
Sorry I couldn't answer your Query (right now, anyway) !!!
