Hachi: A Dog’s Tale (2009)

Rating: 8.2

Truly a tearjerker, the warm and touching story is portrayed really well. Highly recommended for people of all ages. And I’m definitely considering getting an Akita.

A schoolboy reports on his hero: Hachiko, his grandfather’s dog. In a flashback, a puppy at a Japanese monastery is crated and sent to the US. The crate’s tag tears, and when the puppy pushes his way out of the crate at the train station of a small Rhode Island town, Parker Wilson, a professor of music in nearby Providence, takes the dog home for the night. His wife isn’t happy about it, but after failing to find the owner, she lets the dog stay. A Japanese friend reads the dog’s tag – “Hachiko” or “Eight,” a lucky number. Parker can’t teach the dog to fetch, but the friend explains that the dog will forge a different kind of loyalty. Tragedy tests that loyalty. – IMDB.

My name in Chinese

林忠賢 (Lin Chung Hsien)

My Chinese name is now visible on my Facebook profile, that was more than 15 years after I learned to write my Chinese name at Philadelphia School. Ang dami ko palang ka-pangalan sa Chinese name ko. Ilang araw ko ring hinanap ang last character, natagalan dahil sa daming strokes nito, si Alan Co lang pala makakatulong sa akin. Hopefully makita ito ng ibang kamag-anak ko sa Taiwan at ma-contact nila ako.
