At the age of 83, Eddie Garcia plays the character of René, a scrupulous, thrifty, sometimes rude old man. I have to appreciate that as an actor, because that is the main role. He's an old gay man who hangs out in his coffin and likes Sol, a 56-year-old taxi driver (by God, at least some of us will reach that age, so he'll probably be a 50-year-old "young man" a complete prince for us...). The film is named after his dog, and behind the overall image of this gentleman, the beautiful soul of one person crouches inside. Hence my increased rating...
