"Witness
the heartfelt drama about one man’s life struggle in the Hallmark Movie Channel
original Duke, arriving on DVD March 12 from Gaiam Vivendi
Entertainment and Crown Media Family Networks. Steven Weber (“Wings,” “Leaving
Las Vegas’), Sarah Smyth (“50/50”), and Allison Hossack (“Christmas Miracle”)
star in an uplifting story about overcoming personal hardships and reconciling
with the ones that mean most. Duke is the second highest-rated
Hallmark Movie Channel original film to premiere on Hallmark Movie Channel.* "
"Terry Pulaski (Weber) served his country well as a marine sergeant fighting in
Iraq, but when he returns home to his family he is overwhelmed by the
challenges of being a good father and husband. Devastated by his
personal, mental, and physical struggles, Terry leaves his wife and daughter
behind with only his trusted companion Duke by his side. After years without a
home, illness overcomes Duke and Terry is forced to leave his best friend at the
care of a veterinary clinic. On his own, Terry must conquer his struggles
to save his best friend and reconcile with the love ones he left behind.
An inspirational story about redemption." Duke arrives on DVD for
the suggested retail price of $14.93.
Oh my goodness, another teary one for me! I can see why this one is rated number 2 on the Hallmark Channel. This poor guy comes home from Iraq and just cannot connect with his family, but somehow connects with Duke the dog. Many pet owners know how we rely on our animals for care and support. I had a beautiful black and white dog that passed after being with us ten years. Even though I had my family, I did form a best friendship with her. So, I can really see how Duke got this man through some tough times when he abandonded his family and was alone. Of course there is a lot more to this story, I just wanted to touch a little bit on how viewers can possibly relate to the situation even if they haven't been through it.
Thank you to Vivendi Entertainment for my sample used in this review. My opinions are my own and honest.
