Hachiko: The Most Faithful Friend is a drama directed by Lasse Hallstrom. The budget of the picture was $ 16 million. And with such a small budget, we managed to shoot a truly strong drama!The plot is based on a real story that happened in Japan and shocked the whole world! I will not describe it, since it is, in itself, a spoiler of the whole movie. The plot is simple, by and large banal. But, despite all the simplicity, this story takes for the soul!The script is written entirely based on a real story, with the difference that the film is set not in Japan but in America. A plus added minor but charismatic characters. The dialogues are well spelled out, but do not carry a strong semantic load.But what the film really takes is the pitch and the special atmosphere! It was shot very naturally. There is not a hint of fabulousness or fiction in it. The pitch in the movie is very strong! Viewing will cause you a storm of different emotions and feelings! From joy to regret! The film will make you think about such things as true friendship, loyalty, love! The atmosphere of the film lures you unobtrusively from the very beginning, capturing you closer to the middle and not letting go until the very end! The drama in the second half of the film is very strong and serious! Moreover, an animal manages to convey it much better than a person!The acting in the film is at a high level! Richard Gere, Joan Allen, Sarah Roemer and Eric Avari did a great job and fully revealed their characters. But the main character of this film is an Akita-inu dog, worthy of the biggest acting awards! Hachiko at the same time, three adult dogs and three puppies play in different years of life. At the same time, thanks to the correct setting and the work of the operator, you seem to be watching one dog. From childhood to old age. Moreover, the range of emotions that both a puppy and an adult dog convey in the frame is simply phenomenal!The musical accompaniment only enhances the effect of the narration! Jan A.P. Kaczmarek was responsible for the music, and it is a masterpiece! Classic, beautiful and exciting, it perfectly complements the story, and in some places even excessively! But thanks to her, the effect of the drama increases to the absolute!Visually, the film is beautifully shot! I would like to note separately the work of the cameraman and the production artists! We managed to convey the atmosphere clearly, subtly and beautifully! A solid ten!In general, the film came out wonderful! Yes, it has a simple plot, an uncomplicated script, but at the same time a strong presentation, a chic atmosphere, great music, interesting characters and a wonderful video sequence! The film makes you think about the eternal! About the warmest and strongest feelings! Even the ending of the film is a kind of metaphor!It seems to me that every person should watch this film at least once in their life! And believe me, the film will hook you and will remain in your memory for a long time!
