Subject: The One Line That Made The Author Hate His Own Movie | A Boy and His Dog (1975)
Are you ready to discover the secret alternative ending and the
fractured history behind A Boy and His Dog? In this video from Golden
Flicker, we reveal the controversial decisions, bitter feuds, and
bizarre production secrets that turned a 1975 post-apocalyptic
experiment into a cult cinema legend.
Based on Harlan Ellison's Nebula Award-winning novella, this dystopian
tale of a teenage scavenger and his telepathic dog faced seemingly
impossible hurdles. From rejecting lucrative studio deals over animated
dog mouths to a director demanding a harsher censorship rating, we
explore how L.Q. Jones brought the wasteland to life. Join us as we
dissect the brilliant voice acting, the Mojave Desert filming
locations, and the single punchline that infuriated the original author
for half a century.
