Old Yeller was without a doubt the SADDEST movie I EVER saw! I was just little but I still remember it all too well!
And then for a while there, my parents almost barred me from watching Lassie, because I cried every week when I was watching it!
When my oldest son was 12 years old he laughed at me for having tears in my eyes after a sad movie we had watched.
“I don’t cry at movies,” he bragged.
The next day I figured he would forget what he had said and I bought a copy of “Old Yeller” and told him he should watch it because it was a great animal picture.
The following day he handed me back the movie and said,
“That was a rotten trick, Dad. I cried my eyes out.”

Yup…Old Yeller and Where the Red Fern Grows are two movies I could never watch again. Way too sad!
