The Story of Hachiko [Film and TV Commentary]

Hachiko (Forest ) is a mysterious dog because no one knows where it comes from. Professor Parker (played by Richard Gere) picks up a lost puppy at a train station in a small town. It seems destined that the puppy and Professor Parker are destined to have some kind of fate. Hachiko grew up slowly under Parker's care. Hachiko would always take him to the station when Parker was at work, and Hachiko would crawl to the station early to wait when he got off work. Hachiko's loyalty made people in the town love him even more. One day, Hachiko behaved abnormally when Parker was about to go to work. He actually played a ball-picking game that he had never played before. Parker was very satisfied with Hachiko's performance, but that day, Parker died of illness. Parker's wife, daughter Andy (played by Sarah Roemer) and son-in-law Michael (played by Robbie Sublett) buried Parker with extremely heavy heart, but the unknown Hachiko still waited at the door of the station on time at five o'clock every evening.
