My Dog Skip is a 2000 movie, directed by Jay Russell. It is based on the book My Dog Skip by Willie Morris. The movie was released January 14, 2000.
The movie recounts a few anecdotes about 9-year-old Willie growing up in Yazoo City, Mississippi. The son of a veteran of the Spanish Civil War and a domineering housewife, Willie is the daily victim of three school bullies. Then one day a dog (bought by his mother over his dad's objections) comes into his life, and everything changes. The dog is Willie's entry into a world of new friendships.
Tagline: Every family needs an optimist.
A shy boy is unable to make friends in Yazoo City, Mississippi in 1942, until his parents give him a terrier puppy for his ninth birthday. The dog, which he names Skip, becomes well known and loved throughout the community and enriches the life of the boy, Willie, as he grows into manhood. Based on the best-selling Mississippi memoir by the late Willie Morris. Written by Stephen Hughes
