There are many themes inter-twining in this, another winner for Feature Films for Families. Charlie’s devotion to his dog Drum, and his having to stand up to accusations against Drum that literally split the small town in two: is Drum guilty of killing the sheep? As the story unfolds, there are other layers of interest; Charlie’s dad begins courting Ann, the newspaper editor, and Uncle Lon’s deep feelings about his sister’s [Charlie’s mom] untimely death and the guilt he places on others for her death. The acting is good, but the dog almost steals the show! Here’s another winner for the whole family to enjoy; this will hold anyone’s interest as this fascinating, but true story is told.
