André, mon meilleur copain ! (1994)
En 1962, dans le Maine. Harry Whitney dirige avec passion et compétence le petit port de pêche de Rockport. Sa femme et leurs trois enfants, Paula, Steve et Toni, prennent soin des animaux qu'Harry, en écologiste convaincu, recueille dans le cadre de son travail. Un jour, aidé de Toni, sa cadette, Harry parvient à ramener à la vie un bébé otarie abandonné. L'animal, baptisé André, se révèle rapidement un délicieux compagnon, que la télévision locale ne se prive pas de populariser. Mais Harry, dans son combat en faveur des animaux, ne s'est pas fait que des amis. Billy, un pêcheur brutal et alcoolique, lui voue une haine sans limite. Il reporte sur André la hargne qu'il éprouve pour Harry...
