DVD Reviews of Lassie Come Home
DVD Review: Film was good...
Summary: 4 Stars
This film is about a boy (McDowall) who loves his dog, Lassie. She's sold by the family so that they can afford to feed themselves rather than having to spend their wages on the dog. But Lassie keeps escaping, and eventually Taylor's character (who has a very small role in the movie) sets her free. Along the way, Lassie encounters many problems before finally reaching home. Although this is a good movie, "Courage of Lassie" is much better. DVD Review: Great heartbreaking movie
Summary: 5 Stars
The story of a dog who goes through many obstacles to be once again with the boy she loves is moving and superbly well done film making. A great cast. Gorgeous photography. And a very good doggie. You don't like this then you should be put to sleep!!!DVD Review: A very sweet movie
Summary: 5 Stars
I can't believe Amazon didn't consider this an "essential video"! They certainly include a lot of junk in that group, so I guess I shouldn't care. To me, it is essential viewing. Roddy MacDowell is as cute as he can be, and Dame Mae Whitty is such a caring sweetheart! The other cast members are also fine, notably Lanchester & Crisp as Joe's parents. It really is a touching picture, mostly due to the dog "herself" :) In fact, compared to MANY human actors, I'd say Lassie should have received an Academy Award!DVD Review: a great movie for fam!!!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is probly one of the best "old" movies!! i love the little boy "Roddy McDowall" or as in the movie "Joe".He`s so adorable!!!!!^-^
i hope "YOU" like this movie as much as i did!! ENJOY!!!!!!!!

Description of Lassie Come Home
Faithful collie dog is sold by her poor family but she travels 1000 miles to return home to her beloved master. Based on a novel by Eric Knight.Running Time: 89 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre:?DRAMA UPC:?012569572423Lassie Come Home is a classic for all the usual reasons: its timeless, universal appeal, its first-of-its-kind status, and its exceptional cinematography, direction, and performances. What makes this 1943 charmer especially fun for grownups who haven't screened it since their own preteen, pet-obsessed days, though, is a couple of cute-as-a-button cast members. An adorably over-earnest Roddy McDowall stars as Joe, the mostly hapless lad whom Lassie refuses to part with despite his down-and-out family's decision to sell her, for a paltry 15 guineas, to a wealthy duke; and Elizabeth Taylor, already stunning at around age 10, surrenders a sweet if mawkish performance as Priscilla, the Duke's tenderhearted granddaughter, who lends a hand in Lassie's escape from her family's unkind kennel master and winks her way into winning the fearless pup a permanent place at her true master's side. Beyond that, it's no mystery why generations of dog-loving audiences have marveled at the precocious collie's career--Lassie is a great actor. She so convincingly digs impossible trenches, leaps towering fences, swims raging rivers, knocks out bad guys, and betrays the essence of brokenheartedness with her bedraggled coat and woebegone expressions that it's sometimes hard to shake the suspicion that she's really an incredibly limber person in a cute dog suit. All told, Lassie Come Home delivers a lot to love, not the least of which is the deeply dramatic score--quirky sounding to the modern ear--which returns audiences to simpler, irony-free times, as does the movie's message of loyalty at all costs. --Tammy La?Gorce
