Review of My Dog Tulip (2010) by John T — 02 May 2011
The thinking person's "Marley and Me"... The pay-off's an X-rated version of "Lady and the Tramp", or something truly deserving of the title "Dogging: a Love Story" - yet even the gentle humour evoked here can't obscure the very real poignancy of an old man hoping to see the creature he loves fulfilled before either he or his companion passes on.
It isn't a starry voice cast, but the film benefits hugely from the gravity and genial, worldly befuddlement Plummer lends to Ackerley's observations: rarely can the phrase "plop, plop, plop" have sounded so, well, Shakespearian.
