George 1972 Original story by Marshall Thompson, screenplay and direction by Wallace C Bennett. An American film that was mostly filmed in Grindelwald Switzerland. There was a TV series based on the movie, it also starred Marshall Thompson and Jack Mullaney.
Marshall plays an airplane pilot that gets given a giant St Bernard. Jack plays Marshall's pal, he's also a pilot. Marshall takes George to his home in Grindelwald. George doesn't like heights and crashes the plane into a hay wagon near the airport.
George is a bit of a problem for Marshall and he gets donated to a monastery. George runs away and Marshall flies around the mountains in his small airplane to find him. He spots George but on landing he causes an avalanche. No worries, Jack flies up, spots him and sends mountain rescue. Marshall decides to keep George.
I would say it's about average for the kind of movie it is. The scenery is better than the jokes. I wound up with the VCI DVD somehow and I'll keep it for now.
