Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
Kinley
This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
Scarlet
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Dana
An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

My bother and I watched this on TV in 1960. I was 10 , he was 9. To this day ( and I am not kidding) neither of us are able to watch any movie where the dog or indeed any animal is a central theme to the movie.The really awful events at the end of the movie are so distressing that my brother and I ( I am now 61 and my brother 60) have effected us for life. There is absolutely nothing redeeming in watching this movie. Forget it completely if you want a "normal" life.It's just too utterly emotional and totally distressing and very unnecessary. I will never forget how I felt at the age of 10 , as I am still reliving this horrific experience , even now, it has never left me.

The comment from the person who saw this as an 8 year old certainly brought back memories for me.I must have seen this film at least three times during the pre-TV days of Saturday morning special programs for children.If you've ever sat in a theater packed with eight to twelve year olds all bawling their eyes out together, you know it is something you'll never forget. I was able to find a VHS of the movie in later years and was astonished to find how charming the picture is on the adult level as well. Kudos, hugs, and kisses to anyone still alive who helped put it together.

I saw this excellent film on AMC many years ago. It was well-made and moving. I especially liked the natural friendship between the black and white boys. AMC played the movie quite a few times that month, and it was well worth rewatching.

This is more than a great story. It features the best hunting dog photography I've ever seen. The movie shows a way of life and cultural images that are long forgotten, as well. The real tragedy is that no one seems to be able to find a copy of this movie. Please contact me if you know how to get a copy
