To be honest, it is very difficult to guide a dog to perform prescribed movements. Many pet scenes basically rely on post-production to make it work.
However, Lu Hao found a professional pet trainer in the crew to do his best to make the Overlord appear in its true form.
So far, the effect seems to be good.
The bully is very cunning by nature, and the trainer just makes it quiet down when it needs to be quiet.
The actors were all reliable, and Lu Hao was able to film smoothly.
To be precise, the script of this movie is very different from "Hachiko: A Dog's Story".
Except for the essential interaction between humans and dogs, all other parts have been changed a lot.
Originally, it was just a reference.
Rather than plagiarism.
Lu Hao doesn't dare to say that he can surpass the original work, but in terms of his own understanding and aesthetics of movies, he at least maintains the standard and does not desecrate the classics.
In the original novel, the old professor is a very kind character with a harmonious and happy family.
In his own version, he became a different person, selfish, indifferent, and aloof. Only after being rescued by a dog did his inner world undergo subtle changes.
Such changes have both good and bad sides.
The advantage is that it adds comedy, the characters are more rounded, the sense of substitution is stronger, and the dog has a bit more redemption meaning.
The downside is that it's more sensational.
To the professor - I don't trust the whole world, I only trust a dog.
To the dog—I am loyal to you. Whether you are good or bad, kind or evil, rich or poor, I am loyal only to you. Even if you are separated from your wife and children and live on the streets, I will still be with you. Even if you die, I will be waiting for you at the place where we first met, day after day, year after year.
Lu Hao felt that he had taken sensationalism to the extreme.
If the audience doesn't cry at this movie, I lose.
