Fabulous Russian tale about human ethics
What a fantastic satirical book. Think about crossing Frankenstein with My Fair Lady, and then setting it in Soviet Russia. This book is about how human beings are essentially more enslaved to systems than a dog is. A doctor decides to do a science experiment, putting the pituitary gland and testicles of a man into a stray dog to see the results. Instead they end up with a man wolf, who is rude and obnoxious, and demands the same rights as a human being. No sooner is he a man, he is forced to be registered and take part in rebuilding the nation after tsarist Russia. However, as a man he's still treated as a lowly pauper or a dog by the doctor. So who is more free - the dog having to raid bins to search for scraps or the one owned by the doctor and the government? Fabulous little tale.

This is amazing. It really gets you invested in the characters, the dog is so adorable, and the story is nice.
I like to stop half way, because then it is just a feel good family movie, and I will not bawl my eyes out

Me: <i>*Sobbing my broken heart out, reading through the blur of tears*</i>

My dog: Oh no! My bestie is sad! Must remedy this immediately!

Me: Ack! <i>*Sputters*</i> No, Leroy, stop. Please. Get your tongue out my mouth and quit smothering my face!

My dog: Nope. Your eyes are still leaking. You need all the kisses.

Me: <i>*Forced to perch on kitchen bench to finish and fall apart in peace*</i>

"Really meditative and challenging, like being sentenced to a philosophical nightmare. I used to pray for the ability to reanimate my childhood pet dog till I saw this film. Eerie stuff."
