Female dogs tend to shed while in heat. This is why all the collies who've played doggy heroine Lassie in the movies have actually been well-disguised males. A magnificent animal named Pal was the screen's first Lassie in 1943's Lassie Come Home. Set in Yorkshire during the first World War, the film gets under way when the poverty-stricken parents (Donald Crisp, Elsa Lanchester) of young Roddy McDowall are forced to sell his beloved Lassie. While her new master Nigel Bruce is pleasant enough, Lassie prefers the company of McDowall and repeatedly escapes. Even when cared for by Bruce's affectionate granddaughter Elizabeth Taylor, Lassie insists upon heading back to her original home. This time, however, the trip is much longer, and Lassie must depend upon the kindness of strangers, notably farmers Dame May Whitty and Daniel Webster and handyman Edmund Gwenn. Based on the novel by Esmond Knight (originally serialized in The Saturday Evening Post), Lassie Come Home was released quite some time after Knight's death. Like all the Lassie sequels turned out by MGM between 1943 and 1951, Lassie Come Home was lensed in Technicolor. Hal Erickson
