TEACHING AN OLD DOG NEW TRICKS - Tropfest NY Finalist

[NiennaLion]

cullen edwards? lol

[rastalax17]

must say this was really nice. the music. the story. the friendship

[MeliRam98]

Her voice kinda annoys me

[MikaDollaLionKing]

I have two dogs, one of them being a large dog, a greyhound. People think that they are vicious, but they are at the very top of the list of being the least likely to bite another dog or human. The story of this is sweet, but the prejudice against big dogs is bad.... But that dog is very adorable! I really did like the story though!

[GladRaggerz]

Yes! Sadie made it to the Big Screen at last! :-) She really is one in a million!

[s2vics2]

for some reason, this film really irritates me.

[AbbeyIncorporated]

Omg most annoying accent.

[UjjijjU]

wow this is the 3rd sunflower in a row!

[880728leonjf]

a sad history, the dog its the only one living that recieves you very happy when you arrives to the house, but it is right that animals must be protected, not overprotected! very sad for that womans that her only companion is a dog. Too, is very sad for the dogs that doesnt have a home

[PapillonOne]

That was great and really captured the feeling so many of us have about our little Papillons. They really make life a joy! Thanks for a wonderful little film ~ Good Job!!

[soupdexter]

bella and edwards cullen wtf

[DEJIANNxD]

Wow! Bella is beautiful! What breed is she?

[MoManMike]

hahah love the video and also the dog looks like barney from 'how i met your mother'

[LaMonadeLO]

Beautiful and also inspiring for this "old dog". lol

[gagaslittlemonster53]

Warm movie. Bella is so adorable. Is she a Papillon?

[PoppysCornerShop]

Love it. It moves me everytime I watch it. Thank you. You have a gift

[fucktheaufschnitt]

lovely!

[HigherrConsciousness]

wonderful movie

[ItsJami]

LoL The name on the computer was Cullen Edwards.

[laureniscool933]

ohhh...i get it. "teaching an old dog new tricks", when really not talking about the dog. but it was splendid.

[scarli100]

i have a 14 year old dog and he only knows how to get his toy and to sit. I wanted to teach him new tricks but it seems he is too old to make him work..

[chaser3456]

good film. anyone knw the tabs to the music in the backgroundor a way to download it? cheers

[jenniferholmes5]

Just spent 3hours with this lovely lady and her family. Sadie you are a star ( love Bella too).

Thanks for the party.

Jennifer

[crazyforcandy360]

when her kids went back to the middle east did they leave bella for her?

[loveforeignaccents]

That was just absolutely beautiful!!!!!!!

[SmithyMitherList]

so cute O_O

[RemixBorrachos]

awwh

the dog is so cute

and the lady sounds like such a nice person, with a sweet voice :D

But now im thinking, what will be of the lady when bella dies? ='[

[2t1963]

i think for an "old lady of 75...you look wonderful...and are and inspiration...bella is adorable and you both are to cute!

[derpoetischedichter]

Not always the uploader is to be identified with the protagonist :)

[islaoriental]

very sweet lady and dog i liked it a lot

[Burtyboy3000]

Hey great effort, I really enjoyed it. BTW that's a hellevu effort with all those photographs. Nice One

[dwgalviniii]

Have to agree with roblimusic :) great stuff you got here

[roblimusic]

Love the music and most of all her voice - so full of character!

[scotchtapeisgreat]

How adorible!

[Sakurakura]

The dog's name is Bella.

The owners name is Sadie Cullens Edward.

Ha!

Anyway, interesting. The last few lines, about the title, were unnecessary though.

[Ioanides001]

Too bad that the director felt the need to explain the title of the movie... Was obvious from the first minute who's the old dog... Nicely done but spoiled at the very end.

[xXxTifaxXx]

Ok anyone else reminded of salad fingers while listening to her talk?

[luvtospaz]

yes..didnt want to admit it..

but she's sweet :)

[xXxTifaxXx]

lol i had a hard time putting it down too because i knew people would get pissed xD

[minty208]

what kind of dog is this???

[elov246]

I think it's a long haired Chihuahua

[yellowkite7]

umm..

[CatMacLean]

heart warming !!!

[TheBrightBlueNeonSky]

aww so sweet =-]

[Danks4z0]

That was horrible, I wanted to turn it off after the first min...

[herrte]

fantastic film, should have won tropfest. Sadie doesn't look a day over 50!

[hpvrider]

Absolutely delightful, really enjoyed it. Met Ian at our recent swim and look forward to looking at his new prioject please see NOVAS Nigel & Debra

[ipodgirl93]

would this be a documentary? because I nned to do a documentary and I love this technique

[ilovemycollie]

This is a beautiful short film. What a delightful lady :)

[tadman3d]

[LORDMETALMAN]

There is no god xD

[ORIGAMIears19]

fag

[LORDMETALMAN]

???

[alumnathay]

que bonito. Gracias mil desde España.

[magnetoplan]

oh my gosh....3000 pictures?so creative!!

[GroAnitaHilton]

It's beautiful how a friendship can develop. I wish them good luck with eachother's company!

[brownstowngirl]

Wow...how lovely was that. What a great posting. Such an inspiration. The best of luck to all.

[PoppysCornerShop]

Thank you so much for sharing this video. It's just fantastic. I love it. Congrats for your excellent work Ian !!!

[flippadeal]

you

cant

speak

[SPO0OKS]

aww thats sums up relationships with dogs so well. :)  cute!

[PaulineLovesDylan]

What a lovely lady. Cute dog, it's a shame it doesn't get to socialize with other dogs. Did she get to keep the dog?

[sweetchall]

Very touching. Would like to see next video with Bella and G-ma a continued story of staying together.

[NgheanRuadh]

Looks a bit like a Papillon or Pomeranian mixed with a touch of long-haired Chihuahua.

[cmoncookie]

what kinda dog is that? anyone know?

[vraciudude]

mongrels are smarter than selected breeds. Bastardized dogs are prone to disease and very dumb. Just like people ;)

[nikki56732000]

its so touching.. hehehe

[drakendrones]

i luv this vdo! very cute....such a cute granny n i luv the way she says "BAYLLLA"...v.cute!!

[FilmTraumStars1]

What a  nice video and a lovely little dog!

Well done!

[lovelyistheworld]

i like the way the old lady talks

[CatpurrRobertaBobbi]

Those kids bought a dog they could not care for and dumped it on this lady. They better leave the dog with this lady who was kind enough to give a home and who now adores her. They dont bring their family around such a sweet lady?! The gift of Bella is the least they could do!

[kismetsmine]

Whooda thought indeed. I love my dog more than I ever could have thought I could love anything.

I totally understand about Bella. Dogs only want to love and be loved. They live for the moment. We learn from them.

[SammyBoser]

okay so when it says it's a competition, are people MAKING these videos by THEMSELVES? and they are submitting them or sumthin?? cos some of them look really professional. GASP! NigaHiga shoulda put in "Adjusting the sails." that one would be in the top definetly. ok sorry

[bluerox3]

2:02- Cullen Edwards ^_^

Dog=Bella

I've been too addicted to Twilight -_-

[ralukale]

why was this film selected at tropfest???

[ssproutz]

AAAAHHHHHH stop it please...............foookin torture

[eugalipto]

The music and video and storyline are so well put together! Amazing job, simply beautiful!

[sazedwards]

Well Sadie. We think your wonderful and have the most lovely voice in the world and you look bloody good for 21! Love you and don't let strangers opinions make you feel bad. You're fantastic x

[charleedee]

that dog is adorable

[crazyforcandy360]

jk

[BrookeandCarla]

great film :D

carla

[musicalchix]

OMG! On her facebook page it says "Sadie Cullen Edwards" (Edward Cullen) and her dog name is Bella!!!!!!! How coinicdental is THAT?!?!?! (Twilight)

[Mamlog]

....And that ladies and gentlemen is why I hateTwilight fans...

[LAVENECIA126]

stupid

[iamsunshine27]

This video was absolutely amazing and very touching. Thank you for posting this; it just brightened my day.

[sweetXhoney95]

Bella is cute :D

I like the storyline :3

[emilylee4]

i like how she refers to herself as the dog and bella is teaching her new tricks:)

[bickleygirl]

Jakiwjakiw -- chicken is very good for dogs. She would just need to mix it up with veggies and some brown rice. But real chicken is great for dogs.

[bickleygirl]

That's a papillion.

[SupaKawaiiii]

wheres the butterfly? -_-

[ezits666]

WTH is wrong with the audio? why is her voice so strange?? it is seriously annoying

[theflea200]

english accent, you cretin

[susicullen26]

cute dog! is it a papillion?

[Minax3bby]

SOMEBODY LOVES TWILIGHT!

'Cullen Edwards" The dogs name is bella for petes sake!

[xiheartyourface]

I love this

[twilightluvaxo]

She seems very happy (:

Great video...

[Azaelia]

This is fiction, guys...

[abercrombiex3xD]

what kind of dog is that?? so cute!

[purfectpuff]

ooh, wat kind of dog is bella??

[1093rli]

a pomerainian

[SparklingDi]

i liked the camera angle and both are so lovely! ^^

[vousette]

Is this accent liverpuddlian?

:p sorry if i'm wrong- i'm american. not so good at distinguishing b/w uk accents!

[JAKIWJAKIW]

Love the film - but I do have to speak up for Bella. Sadie, as a mother you know that you can't ONLY feed you children sweets because that's what they like! It's the same with Bella - she may only like chicken, but if that's all you are feeding, she is not getting a good diet and she WILL develop health problems from poor nutrition. Be a good mother, and feed her what she needs, not only what she wants.

Hope you have a long, happy and health life with Bella.

[salhugga]

i dont think you understand... these are films, not reality... she may have that dog... but its just a film i believe its fiction :) if not then sorry haha

[MissTruly]

Lovely little film!

[Yjennis]

brilliant short film..wow..absolutely brilliant way to shoot..without actual video camera.

[veronicaownsyou]

i agree. it was probobly filmed with a video camera though. and frames were taken out

[BigBostonBacon]

Do you mean a digital video camera or super8 camera?

[iangamester]

it was shot with a still camera on speed burst mode, so shooting about 4 frames a second... sped up to 12 frames a second, so the action is slightly sped up. as for her annoying voice, that is a liverpool accent...

[Joshlama]

actualy it was from a whole lot of still cameras (5:29 and pause)

[55ophelia]

wow, all shot on a still camera, brilliant,

loved Bella and Sadie too!

[Siss0rs]

why do i get a Twilight vibe =.=

[Azaelia]

*Sporfles* I thought the same thing - and I don't even like Twilight!

[xx1d0ntcar3]

cute dog. ;D

[meand3doggies]

I have 3 white minature maltese and they are my kids so I know how Sadie feels about Bella. This was a great video and I hope Bella stayed w/Sadie.

[rontheunicorn]

cute.

[vietdumbass]

Wow that was great

[1an199]

waste of five minutes

[VirtueOfTrust]

very beautiful great video

[naechancelad]

How unbelievably boring. I thought it might have a twist, maybe a turn. No just 5 minutes about a dog that looks more like a rat

[bushwacker23]

Vell well done film, they're a great team. =)

[MarKeyBee]
