DescriptionA DVD of My Dog Skip, a film by North Little Rock native Jay Russell. Jay Russell was born on January 10, 1960 in North Little Rock, Arkansas. He got his first break at the age of 19, filming a series of commercials for the Arkansas Parks and Tourism division. After receiving his MFA in Screenwriting and Directing, Russell was invited the Sundance Festival Workshop. It was there that Russell began development for his first film starring fellow Arkansas native Mary Steenburgen, "End of the Line". His career has gone on to include films such as Ladder 49, My Dog Skip, Tuck Everlasting, and Water Horse: Legend of the Deep.
The DVD cover of My Dog Skip features a collage of photographs featuring a young boy and a dog, a dog in a car, and a man and woman. The title and tag lines are printed in both English and French.
