🐾 Arya's Approval

"Right darlings, this isn't just a film - it's a profound tribute to courage.

As a rescue dog who understands survival and loyalty, I'm deeply moved by the Résistance's incredible bravery. Melville's personal connection transforms this from a movie to a living historical document.

Some battles are fought without barking - and these heroes showed true heroism."
