I'm 62 and must have watched at least a thousand films ...this is the best one so far ....nothing far fetched... magnificent scenery ...realistic acting ... magnificent dogs...the ending leaves us with a moral to be learnt .
Christopher, with a review like this, WHO in their right mind (many in wrong mindset these days, mind you -L😉L) wouldn't want to check out this film?! I'm saving it to watch later. Thanks!!✌
I was born in Lower Saxony (Niedersachsen), Germany in 1948, and I also really appreciate the timeless and true values portrayed in this movie. A really great movie and story.
The old days.....oh!...the best. This movie says it all. The core values that humanity once knew and cherished. Oh! How the world,the people and humanity has changed for the worse.
Boy o boy- so true, we need a movement back to, integrity’.. its starts with all of us speaking out in the language of Gods’ integrity’, parents, get back to it, teach yr children what it means, if you can remember!!!!! Be the example, not weak and false, but strong and righteous!!
This is what 1st class movies look like. Everyone in this film deserves honors in a touching & charismatic story & the scenery is outstanding. I cannot say enough on how much I enjoyed this. James Cromwell is now my all time favorite. 🤩
I knew a Border that would crack jokes. I'm not joking. 'Charlie' has long since passed, yet the memories stay as sharp as the moments in which they occured. It's a humbling privilege to be loved by a dog.
This film should have won awards! In many ways it is a typically British film in its gentle subtleties and understatement. James Cromwell is from the USA. A film with a heart and a sincere message.
I've watched this 3 times and each time I am moved by James Cromwell's depth of pain that he suppresses bitterly and is prone to pushing people out of his life who get too close. It's such a beautiful environment for the film to unfold, so open and natural. It was filmed in 1998, so 25 years ago. I wonder if there are still places like this to be appreciated.
Thank You so very MUCH for posting this movie , it sure brought back CHILDHOOD memories... Day's gone by when to become a Shepherd was with love and dignity ❤❤❤
A lovely movie with no bad guys or violence. It is greatly appreciated. I really do not watch much television because it shows too much violence and people doing terrible things to others. If I wanted to see that kind of violence I just have to watch the news.
I must watch this with my husband, we have 5 working bred Border Collies & he's a top competitor in USBCHA sheepdog trials . Greetings from Central Oregon, USA !
Mi scusi, chiedo a Lei perché non ho esperienza di queste cose. È possibile che un cane allevato per condurre le pecore e addirittura campione in questa attività, possa anche uccidere una pecora o un agnello? A me sembra molto strano, un vero controsenso. 🤔Grazie se vorrà rispondermi... 😊
Sorry to be so contrary - but I wish that the last saccharine minute had been consigned to the cutting room floor. Some things are best left to the audience's conclusion/imagination. That said. I couldn't tear myself away from all that preceded it. Stunning movie-making.
Just a note to "Cinema cinemas": The Isle of Man is NOT Ireland. It is approximately equidistant from Ireland, Scotland and England, in the Irish Sea. It has it's own Parliament, and Great Britain is responsible for its defense. So, the Isle of Man is an autonomous protectorate of Great Britain.
what a beautiful movie !!! script, acting,directing, music, scenery and story all perfect !!! and a great lesson !!! Don't keep grudge, life is short, forgive and forget and LOVE
A beautiful movie! love the music, scenery, and a simple story that soothes our heart …❤ so glad we’re able to find some very good old movies on UA-cam.
LOVE this actor!! After reading such well expressed reviews, this seemed like a movie worth checking out. Esp. for those of us who took decency, morality & honesty 2B part & parcel of a civilized society - Glad I did!! Producers who make films with positive social messages, contribute. They can then take credit for what's right about their community, society, country, and world at large. Always refreshing to see films that remind us that GOOD people don't think they have a right to do wrong - NOmatter what!! ViewPoint✍from USA!!
There really needs to be more moves like this one.❤ What ever happened to making movies to inspire our youth. Sometimes I wonder if it’s lost forever.💔
Came upon the movie by chance. Brought up happy memories of watching the sheep dog trials at the Scott county fair each summer in Minnesota. The trial course here ran a poor second to Scott Counties. There was a natual deep dip midcourse where the dog and sheep could not be seen from the handler or spectators what a thrill to see the dog drive them over the hillside right on target and carry on to finish. Herding dogs are amazing.
Come on Moderator Cinema cinemas. Several posts have already said THIS IS NOT IRELAND. It is the ISLE OF MAN (one 'n' please,). Yes the scenery is lovely as are the people. The least you can do is get your pinned heading correct. IOM is Independent of both the UK with its own Parliament and Laws. The Parliament is the oldest continuous Parliament in the World having first been held in 979AD. Lovely film and even the opening credits state it is filmed in the Island and produced by them.
TRIVIA: ISLE OF MAN: The island is a self-governing British Crown Dependency - as are Jersey and Guernsey in the Channel Islands - with its own parliament, government and laws. The UK government, on behalf of the Crown, is ultimately responsible for its international relations. It is located between Ireland & United Kingdom:
yes that was truly heartbreaking it just happens in the life of dog owner one day they might have to kill their own dog whether it get rabbies or something like in the movie happens

Good clean movie. Your best script writers don't need to resort to trash in order to make a memorable plot.

I knew the old man (James Cromwell) looked and sounded very Familiar. He was in the Australian Movie ‘Babe’ with a sheep dog and the same accent. He’s American. Great actor, great movie
If we would make movies as this one instead of all the violence, crime and pornography that we've been bombarded with last few decades, maybe we would be more like characters in this movie - plain, normal people.

Definitely support the locals is the best thing we can do.
Yes, then beauty of the country is amazing. What part of the country was seen in the movie?
correct,kids learn life skills as well
James Cromwell could do more with his physical appearance and movements than most actors could do with a thousand words.
Underrated actor fer sure! & seems to have a special affinity with sheep & pigs 😄
👍👍👍
@@raymeedcyes - “That ‘ll do Pig, that ‘ll do”.
