Looks to be a better film than novel

The new York Times has the film as critic's pic.

This looks very cute and heartwarming.
I have a feeling I'll cry.

That trailer makes me feel like I've already seen the entire movie.
I mean, what else can happen? She dies? The dog dies? She marries her shrink? She discovers Bill Murray has taken over the body of the dog?
I'll give it a shot, but other than an overload of cuteness (Naomi [bold]and[/bold] the dog), I can't imagine that I'll find it interesting.

^^^Ya gotta love how the Rolling Stone describes the Bill Murray character: "[he] is as renowned for seducing his female students as much as he is for his literary legacy. He’s an irascible, charming rascal".
Like this is both common and commonly acceptable, even "charming."

As a former college instructor, I find that kind of behavior from professors unconscionable.
So sue me.

I absolutely rate Naomi. Fantastic actress.

Naomi says this is the third time working with animals but she can't really count king Kong as that was not a real gorilla.

Naomi must have lost her jacket right sleeve backstage. Or is this a new look?

I know what you mean. I ran into an acquaintance when they were walking their huge door and it scared me. It was like a horse!

Just saw it. I actually liked the first 30 minutes the best before the dog appears. I like Naomi but this film just went on too long with about three endings.

Another fucking dead dog movie.
NOPE
