The Dog Problem
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Dog Problem is a 2006 comedy film directed and written by Scott Caan.
Along with Caan, the film also stars actors Don Cheadle, Lynn Collins, Kevin Corrigan, Giovanni Ribisi, and Mena Suvari. The film also stars supermodels Melissa Keller and Joanna Krupa, along with Ultimate Fighter Tito Ortiz.
In the film, Solo (Ribisi) is a down-on-his-luck writer who is encouraged by his psychiatrist (Cheadle) to get a dog. Solo meets his love interest (Collins), who is also a dog-owner, but dog problems stand in their way.
The Dog Problem was screened at the 2006 Toronto Film Festival. Erik Childress of efilmcritic.com says it's, "A romantic comedy which doesn't force its charm down your throat and instead allows the viewer in to peek around its quirks and discover the true heart beating within."[1]
