Heavenly Dog</i> is a sort of reverse rip-off of a 1951 movie called <i>You Never Can Tell</i>, in which a pooch is murdered after being bequeathed a fortune by its late owner and is allowed to return to Earth as a human (Dick Powell) to solve this crime. It's ages since I've seen it, but I seem to recall there's also a woman who used to be a horse (I swear I'm not making this up) who assists Powell in his efforts and keeps getting distracted by the sort of things that <i>would</i> distract a horse. It's pretty goofy, but entertaining and better in my opinion than <i>Heavenly Dog</i>, even though it doesn't have Benji.<br /><br />Speaking of Powells, <i>The Thin Man</i> (who hasn't spent a Christmas Day getting snockered and shooting at the baubles on the tree?) features a dog called Asta, the pet of Nick and Nora Charles, played by 'Skippy'. Asta was so popular in the film that he appeared in all the <i>Thin Man</i> sequels and the spin-off TV show, although not always played by Skippy.<br /><br />If Beethoven had been bitten by a rabid bat in the first forty-five minutes of that first movie, we would have been spared not only the rest of the film but also the myriad sequels.
