HACHIKO - the loving dog

I have just finished watching the movie Hachiko almost 20 minutes ago and I have not recovered yet. He keeps on strolling in my mind so I decided to share my feelings about him.

My professor recommended me and my classmates to watch this movie entitled HACHIKO. So in the afternoon during that day, I copied the movie in the Department office.

Just more than an hour earlier, after school, I decided to watch the movie instead of sleeping thinking that I may get bore and could fall asleep. But what happened was very contrary to what I predicted to happen. Even now, I can't seem to feel sleepiness because of this very touching movie. It was worth my time and I'm gonna watch this movie all over again.

What was this movie all about?

It is more than just about the dog. It is basically about loyalty, love, and friendship. Hachiko is a dog - a special one - who found his home in a professor's arm. They made an inseparable bond that every people admired. He accompanied his master in the train station every morning and during his master's arrival from work, he could always be seen waiting at the front door of the station to welcome and accompany his master on their way home. But one day, his master did not come and after that afternoon, he waited and waited. You can't even guess how many years he had we waited.

This movie is a remake of the 1987 Japanese film Hachikō Monogatari. Watch this movie and I can assure you that you're gonna cry like a baby. ^^, It's a very good movie. You sure will love this.
