Because Lilly is such an avid dog-lover...whenever I see a movie with a dog in it, I record it.
So -- it's the Friday night AFTER Christmas....I was pleased to have TWO dog movies on the DVR. Hitachi and A Dog's Purpose. I hoped they would be new to the kids...
BUT....NOOOOOOO such luck!!
As it happens -- Lilly and Warren watch a LOT OF MOVIES. They have Amazon Prime at their house, Alexa, Netflix, and, well -- many other things I do not understand.
When I told the kids about the dog movies, Lilly said...
"Seriously, Grandma? Those are both terrible movies. It's A Dog's Purpose is about a dog being reincarnated into another kind of dog....over and over again. You basically watch a dog die a dozen times...it's one of the saddest movies I ever saw...
The only movie sadder would be Hitachi/ (she was really on a roll by this time)...
It's about a dog that gets lost, and the man who finds him loves him, and they go to the train station together every day. But then, about ten minutes into the movie -- the guy dies. That poor dog continues to go to the station EVERY DAY looking for his man -- FOR YEARS, GRANDMA...YEARS. There is no happy ending. Of course the dog dies of a broken heart.....there's no resolution..."
I swear to God. She said that..."there's no resolution"
Sometimes, I just look at her. She is ten years old.
I'm not sure how old I was when I used the word resolution in a sentence...but I know I was already married.
