\nIf you’ve ever felt alone, scared, angry, on the defensive, excited, hungry, or in love, then you’ll certainly empathize with the protagonist of the new Netflix film, White Fang<\/em>, a truly human story about the life\u2014from puppyhood to adulthood\u2014of a wolf-dog. \n<\/p>\n


\n <\/p>\n


\nAs we watch White Fang move through the world, we empathize with his struggles as we would with a human, a human, that is, with experience in dogfighting. Featuring voiceovers from Rashida Jones, Nick Offerman, Paul Giamatti and others, the film has a full Alaskan sled-load of excitement, complete with powerful, compassionate writing set against a beautifully visualized backdrop. \n<\/p>\n
