Milo is a kitten, Otis is a dog. We are asked to accept the notion that Milo and Otis are best friends. When Milo gets into a small box with the intention of taking a trip down a river, Otis follows. En route the "stars" encounter bad weather, life-threatening situations, and even potential mates. Original made for Japanese TV under the title Koneko Monogatari, The Adventures of Milo and Otis contained some intense scenes which suggested that animals used therein weren't being treated very well. For American consumption, the film was pared down to a G-rated 75 minutes, with a new comic narration added, written by Mark Saltzman and wittily delivered by Dudley Moore. Hal Erickson
