Trail of the Film Diary (2025) (197 movies items)
"16.7. Re-watch. One of the most powerful films ever made. A pensioner and his dog need to find money so they could avoid getting thrown out of their apartment. At the end the man ends up planning to kill himself as everything else in his life crumbles.
