LASSE HALLSTROM TO HELM
'A DOG'S PURPOSE' ADAPTATION
Not much to show you today, so we're turning over to three uplifting projects, starting with the new film from our dearest director Lasse Hallstrom (CHOCOLAT, SALMON FISHING IN THE YEMEN, THE 100 FOOT JOURNEY) who will helm the adaptation of A DOG'S PURPOSE from W. Bryce Cameron. The story of the novel describes one dog’s quest to discover his purpose in life over the course of several lifetimes with multiple owners. So, expect a warm, family movie with heartwarming message as in all Lasse's lovely movies. CELIA IMRIE TO SPEND

She retreats to Cape Cod where she embarks upon a quest to set herself free. That’s where she meets Joan Erikson (Celia Imrie), a free-spirited matriarch and hippie with thrift-shop eccentricity who exudes resilience and inner strength.
