More than man's best friend. A mate to the entire community. It's the film that captivated cinema audiences across the nation and became an instant Aussie classic. Funny, moving and a total charmer, Red Dog is the incredible true story of the wandering, dust-covered Kelpie who hitched his way to the mining town of Dampier and into the hearts of each and every one of its residents. Critics gave this all-ages hit movie five stars, hailing it wonderful and a crowd pleaser that should not be missed! Featuring a fabulous cast including Josh Lucas, Rachael Taylor and, in his last film, a memorable cameo from Bill Hunter. Red Dog wags a great emotional tale of adventure, love and lasting friendship. Based on the best-selling book by Louis de Bernieres. (Roadshow Entertainment)

On one hand, it's "just" a film about a dog - and actually a cat too - but the way the film is presented, its form, how wonderfully offbeat it is when you least expect it, how the actors take it seriously yet not seriously at the same time, all of that makes it interesting, and it's definitely not just another variation of family films like Lassie.
