Well done, Ixion. Thanks to Rossim for the vote and to Ginge and Aristo for the mention.
Thanks for hosting, Aristo - what is the movie? I can't access it from the link.

Hi mattrom

You can access the movie if you copy and paste the whole link. It seems rather weird at first because it is in Japanese. All is made clear if you continue to watch after the end of the movie to see the explanation in English.

It brought Greyfriar's Bobby to mind. While I was at Edinburgh some (other!) students stole his statue. I think they were in quite serious hot water.

Prefer diamonds myself!!

It's "Hachi: A Dog's Tale", and the clip is just the end of the movie. It shouldn't be in Japanese though! It's should be in English. The original one was in Japanese. I'll try again.

The last four letters are VIRE, but when I copy and paste just what's showing I get the video. It's the version with Richard Gere and Joan Allen and Jason Alexander (from Seinfeld).

Nice one, Ixion! Great clue, (that's why I voted for it), and thanks for your vote. Many thanks, also, to Paul and Dorrien for the votes, and to Ginge and SteveA for the mentions. Always appreciated. Cheers, Aristo, for hosting and for your kind mention.
