This weekend we are watching a touching Russian movie made in 1977 and directed by Stanislav Rostotsky: White Bim the Black Ear.
White Bim the Black Ear is a story of a white setter with black ear who one day became homeless because of hospitalization of his Daddy. During his homeless life Bim met a lot of different people some of them were kind to him and some of them were not…
There is a monument of White Bim the Black Ear in Russian city Voronezh.
And you can read inscription on his collar: “His name is Bim. He waits for his master. He knows his home well. Do not hurt him, people …”

Чудесный, добрый, замечательный фильм! Strongly recommend!
Кстати, по поводу strongly recommend – надо будет опять поставить гаджеты с Google Friend Connect, но все придется накапливать заново – Google Friend Connect, оказывается был привязан к Blogger’у, а не к адресу блога

THE saddest movie I have EVER, EVER watched. I love you…
Thank you for this! I cried for a long time after watching this movie. I am doing a post on my blog about White Bim next week. I’ll link up to your post.
Cheers,

GREAT movie! Thank you!*
Thanks for sharing this heart-warming movie. I’m sad that we couldn’t view this movie in the 70′s. Would have gone a long way in thawing relations between East and West.
Oh what a treasure,you can’t believe what this meant for me…explaning a bit: saw this movie when i was 10 or 11 years and it struck me like lightning but not knowing exactly why as i was young to understand completely…years went by…when i was 21 i saw a dog in a jeep in our town and there was this stange unresistable urge to find a dog like this.One week later I found Apollo,an english setter,my best friend ever…he lived for 16 years,a true soulmate.two years afters apollo’s dead my mother tells me a memory,when i told her about the urge to find this kind of dog years ago…she told me that when i was about 3 or 4 years old, an english setter arrived at our house and he slept in the horsestable.when she told this, i suddenly recalled this dog jumping at this stable door.one moment you saw him then not and so on..but he ran away …and came back and ran away again..i cried my heart out for that.
and today i recalled a movie with a dog that was stuck on the trainrails so i googled and googled and found and saw it was an english setter!!!…mindblowing movie, by heart is filled with sorrow as well as joy,profound thank you for uploading and weird as i’m 43 years now, how this beautiful sensible creature visiting me as a child,is a red love thread…
