On this day, November 12, 1982, White Dog, directed by Samuel Fuller, premiered in New York City. Starring Kristy McNichol, Paul Winfield, Burl Ives, Jameson Parker, and Parley Baer, this controversial film explores a challenging and thought-provoking storyline about a dog trained to attack based on race. Despite its $7 million budget, White Dog saw limited release and grossed just $46,509, but it has since gained recognition as a powerful, if divisive, piece of cinema.

Who remembers White Dog? Have you seen this thought-provoking film?
