Product Description

From Amazon.com

When a mistreated beagle pup follows 11-year-old Marty Preston (Blake Heron) home one day, it sparks a passion in the boy that leads him into a web of moral and emotional turmoil. Marty knows the dog belongs to his irascible neighbor, Judd Travers (a spittin' mean performance by Scott Wilson); he also knows Judd breaks local gaming laws and abuses his hounds. But Marty's father (Michael Moriarty) is a stickler for the first rule of pet ownership: he who owns the pet rules the pet. Marty seeks advice from the wise Doc Wallace (Rod Steiger), who tells the boy about his own struggle to claim legal guardianship over his granddaughter following her parents' death. The story inspires Marty to fight for the creature he has come to love. With a believable blend of nerve, conviction, and a hint of fear, Marty works every angle to beg, buy, or (finally) strike a trade with Travers to save Shiloh. While its pace runs a bit slow, the film provides a thoughtful lesson in weighing right and wrong and should appeal to families with children under 12. Based on the Newbery Award-winning book Shiloh, by Phyllis Reynolds Naylor. --Liane Thomas

A loving story about a boy who finds a young beagle pup on the shiloh bridge. The first thing he says to him is to go back home, but when he sees the mark on his eye he starts to wonder who is been terribly cruel to him. He decides on shiloh for his name cos he found him on the shiloh bridge. He tries to work round his dad to let him keep him, but he ie determined to give him back to judd travers. The boy becomes attached to the dog so he is doing everything he can to keep him. A LOVING STORY.

5.0 out of 5 stars FINALLY a movie that addresses the issue of animal cruelty!, Aug 2 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Shiloh (VHS Tape)
I absolutely adored the "Shiloh" series of books, and was a little skeptical about watching this movie. However, the movie remained quite true to the book, and completely captured the message of the book as well. The acting is exceptional. I disagree with the previous reviewer's statement about letting young children watch this movie. I have a 2 and 1/2 year old boy, and he was having a problem with hitting our dog. I showed this movie to him, and though I'm sure most of it went over his head, he understood that hitting dogs is bad, and that dogs need love. He's been great with the dog ever since. Sounds simple, but it's a powerful message, and one that needs to be taught to the youngest of children. Animal cruelty among children in this country is at a shocking all-time high, and compassion needs to be stressed at a very early age. I highly recommend this movie to anyone, any age.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good for older children, careful with young, sensitive kids!, Nov 10 1999
This review is from: Shiloh (VHS Tape)
This movie is well done. It shows kids that animals have feelings that need to be respected. However, be careful letting young or sensitive children view it. The part where the owner is abusing Shiloh upset our 4 year old so bad he wouldn't watch the rest of the movie with us!
