Give A Dog A Bone

About This Movie

‘Give A Dog A Bone’ is one of those quirky gems from the 60s that straddles the line between fantasy and a family adventure, though it's got its own offbeat vibe. The story follows young Mickey and his dog Ringo as they embark on a somewhat whimsical journey to London, only to encounter the eccentric Mr. Space, who offers some lessons on manners and family ties. The film's pacing has that charmingly slow feel typical of the era, and the practical effects, while modest, add a certain charm that's hard to replicate today. Performances are earnest, with a certain innocence that feels almost nostalgic. It's not the most polished film, but there's a warmth to its low-budget spirit that collectors seem to appreciate.

This film is a bit of a rarity, often overlooked but cherished by those who stumble upon it. It's available in a few formats, but finding a good quality print can be tricky, which adds to its allure for collectors. The distinct visual style and themes of familial reconciliation make it a noteworthy piece, particularly for those interested in niche 60s cinema. Interest tends to be modest but steady, reflecting a small but dedicated following among collectors.
