DESCRIPTION:
The daughter of loving-but-work-consumed parents; Gretchen has a lonely life at the family’s country house. She has a huge imagination; so nobody believes her when she says she found a wolf in a nearby cave. That she proves everybody wrong will be evident to dog-tale fanciers of all breeds; from Lassie Come Home to Marley & Me. Adorably natural 8-year-old Sharyn Moffett makes a terrific film debut in My Pal; Wolf; which deals sweetly with an irresistible child-and-newfound-pet premise and movingly with issues of war and the homefront. Gretchen’s German Shepherd turns out to be a trained AWOL army dog; and though she brings her case to the secretary of war himself; she finally faces her duty to send her pal off to fight. The cheers and tears this sentimental yarn generates are honest; while the foibles of self-absorbed grown-ups are depicted with compassion. Well-crafted by producer Adrian Scott (Murder; My Sweet; Crossfire) and director Alfred Werker (He Walked by Night; Lost Boundaries); My Pal; Wolf is a movie lover’s best friend.
