Possession

Possession. Andrzej Żuławski, 1981.
😿
Edition screened: Second Sight Blu-ray, released 2013. English language. Runtime approximately 123 minutes.

Summary: Depiction of a dead dog.

Details: Beginning at 1:51:35 is a 2-second image of a dead dog floating in a river.

This remarkable, almost unbelievable, film remains free of violence to animals until near the end, when the dead dog is pointed out to protagonist Sam Neil. The dog is meant as a threat and references Neil’s earlier recollection of being with a dog when it died.
