Hachiko
Which movie is your favorite? When I thought about it, the answer came to me along with a memory... I recalled the words of a wise person who said that the most memorable things are those that evoked the strongest emotions.
And which movie evoked the most emotions in me? Of course, it was Hachiko.

It's the only film that I had to pause three times to calm down my emotions while watching it.
Tears streamed down my face, and my heart ached with pain. No other film I've ever watched in my life has come close to the emotional impact that this incredible, albeit sorrowful, film had on me.
It's a true story, and it can't help but touch the lyrical strings of the soul. It's about true friendship, the purest loyalty and devotion, and genuine love that never fades regardless of the circumstances.
It's about the hope that one evening, a train car door will open, and a familiar, beloved silhouette will emerge. Upon seeing this person, the faithful dog will jump to its feet and run faster than the wind, leaping onto the shoulders of the one it waited for, sensing the most pleasant smell in the world—the smell of someone whose presence is more valuable than delicious food, a warm home, and the care of loving hands that would tend to the beloved pet of their deceased owner.

Such a tragic story and if I am not mistaken there is a Japanese version of this film as well. That dog truly embodies man's best friend.
This movie still traumatized me and I'm still recovering from it. 🥺🥺🥺
