Only a Chinese director would make a normal child into a little adult with a mouth full of chicken soup for the soul, and vaguely think of the standardized smiling faces of the children at the Spring Festival Gala. Three stars are given to puppies, in fact, this movie has nothing to do with puppies at all.
Opal: You know, Winn-Dixie, if my mama were around, I bet she'd let me keep you. Ever since we moved here, I've been thinking about my mama extra hard.
Preacher: Opal, I hope that dog's not in your bed.
Opal: [to the preacher] Yes, sir. I-I mean, no, sir, he's not.
[back to Winn-Dixie]
Opal: I really don't know where she is. She left when I was only three years old. I can't hardly remember her.
Preacher: And make sure you got your window shut tight. Don't want that rain gettin' in.
Opal: [to the preacher] Okay.
[back to Winn-Dixie]
Opal: The preacher? It's no use. He won't talk to me at all about her. I bet you don't remember your mama much, either. So we're really alike, you and me. Think I should make the preacher tell me about her? Mm, I'll think about it.
Preacher: You're supposed to be in bed.
Opal: [narrating] The preacher took a loan out from church and paid off our rent, but he had to promise Mr. Alfred that he would find Winn-Dixie a home before the end of summer. I would have promised anybody anything. I was just so happy to have Winn-Dixie with me. And I was happy to have a job at Gertrude's pets.
