But if you press it to play - a choice of the Best of Dug appears -- I hit it and it went to Youtube and it played.

I still haven't seen this movie. :) I watched this clip up there again -- I was able to click on a link within the image itself up there. Anyway, this dog seems potentially annoying. Once seeing my answer again, I keep thinking of three different people in totally different environments, out of the blue, telling me that I reminded them of this dog. Yikes. :)
I have always been drawn to the whimsical character known as Seymour S. Sassafrass (voiced by Danny Kaye) from the Rankin & Bass Easter holiday program "Here Comes Peter Cottontail." He's so colourful, light-hearted, and he wears a magic top-hat. I love it. There is a je ne sais quoi about him that reminds me of something within me and something I aspire to as well. What a delightfully wonderful character.
"Allow me to introduce myself. I am Seymour S. Sassafras. I am a peddler by trade, and by golly. I deal in magic and moonbeams and pretty pretty colours. Oh yes! I can sell you the most perfect pink, or the most blissful blue, or a simply euphoric yellow."
I can't prove it...that's what mom told me...just as she told me she was a babysitter for Jesse Owens' children as we lived in the same black/Jewish apartment complex.

Without a doubt, Alfred Hitchcock himself from the Alfred Hitchcock Hour television show. Like ol' Hitch, I too have a V E R Y dark sense of humor and a propensity towards perfection. Also, I've heard ol' Hitch favored darker colors and hues over lighter ones... that's me all the way.
Oh! How could I forget? This just happened in the last two weeks! I'm going with another answer in which another person (not me, myself) finds a movie character that reminds them of me.
A friend in an exercise class, out of the blue (again, like that dog in "up"), said for me to watch the movie "Hacksaw Ridge." It was in the middle of class when she asked and the topic never came up again.
I watched the movie and I had asked her, "Why did you want me to watch "Hacksaw Ridge"?"
And she said 'Because you remind me of Desmond (Doss, played by Andrew Garfield)! He and you are just alike!"
I immediately started to cry.
If you've seen the movie, you'd know why I started to cry.

Indeed, she meant it as a compliment. my tears were tears of a "You are kidding me!" type of surprised reaction. The movie is a true story of an incredibly admirable and brave man who was in World War II. This Desmond Doss goes beyond being a great person -- I'm still very, very, very humbled that my friend thinks I am like this guy.
I really recommend the movie a lot. It was unlike anything I've seen. :) :)
