Chestnut: Hero of Central Park is a 2004 comedy film directed and co-produced by Robert Vince, and starring Makenzie Vega, Abigail Breslin, Christine Tucci, Justin Louis, Tony Alcantar, Irene Olga López, Ethan Phillips, Irene Karas, and Barry Bostwick. A co-production of the United States and Canada, the film's plot follows a Great Dane who is taken in by two recently adopted orphan girls, who keep the dog a secret from their new foster parents.[1]
Soon after being taken in by a loving new mother and father (Mr. Matt Tomley and Mrs. Laura Tomley), two young former orphans (Sal and Ray) do their best to keep their furry, four-legged friend — a lovable Great Dane named Chestnut — a secret from their adoptive parents and save him from a grim fate at the city pound, where he would certainly be euthanized.[2]
Chestnut: Hero of Central Park was released on DVD on December 19, 2006 by The Weinstein Company.
