Stray Dog

(2014) dir Debra Granik [98 min; DCP]

Granik’s debut documentary is a sensitive, observational film about Ron “Stray Dog” Hall, a motorcycle-riding Vietnam vet with a heart as big as the open road. With his newly wed Mexican wife, Anita, by his side, Stray Dog is doing his best to live his life as openly and positively as he can manage. STRAY DOG is a moving and graceful portrait of a man, a place (rural Missouri), a time, and, in a major way, our country.
