Trailer Here (http://www.apple.com/trailers/independent/lassie/trailer/)
STARRING: Samantha Morton, Peter O'Toole, Peter Dinklage, John Lynch, and a cute couple of kids. Oh right, and LASSIE.
Written and Directed by: Charles Sturridge
Summary: Set in 1938, a loyal collie travels over 1,000 miles from northern Scotland to Yorkshire to return to her young friend. The dog, having been sold to a wealthy Duke because the boy's father was out of work, runs away and braves starvation and treacherous conditions to follow the pull of her heart toward the family who loves her.

This movie is awesome. As you can see from the pedigree, 'tis a serious attempt at a solid and beautiful Lassie film. The trailer kinda sucks, but you can check the reviews (they are very good). Oh, and the summary is wrong about the "over 1,000 miles" part. That's fucking ridiculous.
Try and catch this if you want to see a solid movie about the purest love there is.
