Viewing Notes

Story by the guy who did Watership Down, but this time he’s telling the story of 2 dogs who escape an animal testing facility. This is a very touching story and voiced by some of the best English actors. It really pulls at the heartstrings and I’m sad I hadn’t even ever heard of this film until now.
