Back To Index My Dog Skip
 Barnes & Noble An unabashedly sentimental coming-of-age story, My Dog Skip lovingly depicts life in a small Mississippi town, as seen through the eyes of a sensitive young boy. Wide-eyed Frankie Muniz (of the hit Fox sitcom "Malcolm in the Middle") plays Willie, a socially awkward, athletically challenged youth whose doting mom (Diane Lane) gives him a puppy over the objections of his disciplinarian dad (Kevin Bacon). With the faithful "Skipper" for a constant companion, Willie tackles the challenges posed by adolescence and grows into an assured young man. Based on an autobiographical novella by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Willie Morris, My Dog Skip re-creates World War II-era Mississippi with painstaking accuracy, confronting with admirable objectivity such issues as racial segregation and the plight of returning veterans. Director Jay Russell doesnt shy away from scenes of high drama, but he infuses the film with warmth and humor, guaranteeing a memorable viewing experience for the whole family.
