Movie review

From Time Out Film Guide

Big-grossing film in the States, about the life'n'love of a stray mongrel, told from the dog's point of view. Against the novelty of the canine stunts one has to balance some terribly variable acting, poor lighting, and spotty photography. Attendant adults will probably find it a long haul. A sequel ensued, For the Love of Benji (1977).
