Heart of a Dog (2015)

Heartbreaking and lovely film. If you've ever loved an animal, known his or her spirit, this is an elegy that will probably have you in tears. But you will be very grateful for having had the experience.

There's great humor here too.

Laurie Anderson on her dog Lolabelle learning to play the piano after going blind: "And she used some of the same programs and samples that I use."

And, of course, there's the wonderful music of Laurie Anderson throughout the film.

"Crying is not allowed, because it's supposedly confusing to the dead."
