Yesterday night, I watched this movie – Hachiko A Dog’s Story which stars Richard Gere. It is a true story based on a faithful Akita dog named Hachiko and its love and devotion towards its master. A very moving and warm-hearted tale and needless to say, I was bawling 🙁 Ashley saw me crying and kept asking me why I cried. So, in between sobs, I have to tell her the story. She hugged me and also laughed at me for crying. Note to myself : Better not watch tearjerkers when she’s around.
Have you watched this movie? I love Richard Gere!
Richard must be very old by now.. but still as attractive? :p ok, so which made u cry? the story, the man or the dog? last time i watched marly and me, that also made me teary.. ladies are like that one or is it only us? 🙂
I will definitely cry then! I even cried when I visited the exact same spot in Tokyo where Hachiko waited for his master to return 🙁
I love Richard Gere too! He is hot….it is indeed a touching story.
is on DVD? or Astro?
DVD
Haven’t watched this movie but Richard Gere movies are usually pretty good 😉
His movies are quite good. He looks v kindly! There’s a statue of this dog in Tokyo too. Maybe u shd go visit
OHHHHHHHHH OHHHHHHHHH OHHHHHHHHHH. I LOVE THIS MOVIE BARB!!!!!!
I read the real-life story about this dog, it’s very touching. But I haven’t get the chance to watch the movie. Err… I should get the DVD soon.
Wah…than I must watch alone. Because I’m a cry baby when watching this type of sad movie.
Awww.. I like Richard Gere.. Me too can get very emotional when watching movie like this one. Sure become a “ham bao”..:P
Shame-shame! I used to like RG too but now I can’t stand him. Have decided since that he’s too gay. I even cried watching Toy Story 3, ok?
what? you think he’s too gay? why? i think he’s very manly 😉
Haven’t watch. But since the story is so touching, for sure I’ll also cry.
I know about this story but haven’t watch this movie yet. I think I will cry too. Ok will ask Hubs to download for me..hehe.
don’t think i will watch this movie coz just watching the trailer made me cry and even typing this comment is tearing me up.
dawn, you are a ham pau lah…..hahahahahahha.
I like Richard Gere too ! Yet to see this movie 🙁
I heard of this movie, and know about how touching it is… Sure I’ll cry also if watch this.. =_=
I’m sure I will cry too! Must prepare a box of tissue papers when I watch this.
Btw, I have an award for you. Do swing by my blog to pick it up 🙂
wah wah..that touchy huh??? shall watch when gt free time 😉
Yes, Richard Gere is smart looking and attractive man. When I read aloud the Toy Story 3 for my girls in the hotel duing my KL stay, I also didn’t know why I suddenly sobbed at the last page. When Andy gave all his toys away to Bonnie, and he played with Woody, Buzz and all for the very last time. My two girls looked at me and didn’t know what to react, at least your Ashley still gave you a hug.
oh wow, Toy Story 3 is that touching too? I’ve never watched any of it before. Hmm..maybe i should 😀
Oh….must order from hubby the next time he goes DVD hunting! 🙂
Eh Barb, know something? After watching the trailer with Marshmallow, i refused to watch the movie though i knew it was a touching & sad movie. They used Richard Marx ‘Right here Waiting’ to go with it…OMG, sure cry lah! 🙁
Oh i thought you have watched this Lina cos I saw your posting in FB. In that case, you really must watch this movie. Cannot miss it lah…since you love dogs and you love Japan…hahahahaha
fell in love with him a lot during pretty woman’s movie. Hence, i named my baby brother Edward during that time and it become his official name today (now 19), hehe…
