The Voice of Bugle Ann

I loved this movie . It is so good, reminds me of where the red fern grows ,sorta. I have wanted to see it again for 13 yrs ,my mom and I watched it yrs ago. This movie will stir the soul , at least it did mine . My mother and I watched it and knew our husbands would love it but have never seen it again or heard of it ,even asked local movie stores with no luck.Glad to have found it on this site . Hope to be able to buy it . If you love older movies and one that has animals , then this one you will love .

I am really ready to see again . I think it should be re-made ,and put on the big screen. I believe all kids would enjoy this clean movie . it has a sad part but not nothing like todays shows .

Good drama about Fox hunting in 1930's Ozarks.The film had good all around production and a good cast.To nitpick,the film was kind of slow and the love story could have been better.Also,the script was average.But still hits the spot for those who love Fox hunting,Dogs,Ozark lifestyles,1930's drama films,and for big fans of the lead actors.....

This was the first movie my grandparents saw together...and they're still reminiscing about it. I want to get them a copy and watch it with them. I can't seem to find it online in VHS (video tape) anywhere...only the book at Borders. The TCM channel played it in July 2002, so I wonder if anyone taped it then? I would pay $$ for a copy!

I have been watching for some reappearance of this film for many years, with no satisfaction. You see, I saw it as a child, and there are VERY few films that have remained with me from that long ago. (This very day happens to be my 77th birthday).

It is a touching tale involving a favored hunting dog that somehow gets caught in an animal trap and spends a stormy night baying for some help, but unreachable due to the raging storm. At least, that's the way I remember it. When the storm lets up, the anxious searchers who could hear him but could not locate or get to him find his trapped and dead body. It was so movingly done that I have never forgotten its effect on me.

I cannot begin to tell the readers how Voice of Bugle Ann affected me!

As a little girl I knew that I loved all animals, big and small. Saturdays were my day to take my 15 cent allowance and walk to downtown Binghamton (NY) to see a movie at the Strand theater. This was my every Saturday routine.

5 cents would buy my way in to see the movie and I always headed for the front four rows of seats. I spent the remaining 10 cents on as much candy as it would buy.

I guess Lionel Barrymore was like a movie "father" to me and I adored him! And when I watched Bugle Ann and saw how loving he was with his companion and how hurt he was when Bugle Ann was lost to him, I couldn't stop crying.

This movie made a lifetime impression on me of how you should love and cherish any animal that God has put in your care. You should consider them a part of your family. You should express your affection for them whenever you're together. And, it's a good thing to sit down and talk to them about the things you have on mind, even your worries. Treat them as if they were another human.

I have a Yorkie mix and we are at one another's side 24-hrs. a day.

And something that has stayed with me from the age of 8 to my current age of 75...I have NEVER forgotten the beautiful bugle of Bugle Ann. I have heard it at times when we have driven through the Everglades. But, strangest of all, I will hear it at night time. I always tell myself "that's Bugle Ann and she's telling us she's OK by bugling..."

When, of course, I know that it's really a neighbor's dog.
