Review

  • I have known about this movie all my life but had never seen it until recently. It is a classic western story; good cowboy vs bad Easterner, good looking cowboy trying to get beautiful girl, desperate rancher trying to save the ranch, innocent little girl trying to stay with her animal friends, and last, but not least, the beautiful stallion who wins the big race and thereby makes everything else happen.

    In the end, the ranch is saved, the cowboy gets the girl, the bad guy is defeated and goes away, and the stallion returns to the wild where he whinnies his thanks while silhouetted against an Arizona evening sky before disappearing over the hill. Cowboy, beautiful girl and charming little girl smile and wave goodbye.

    More than just a old movie, this film is a time capsule that gives us a glimpse back to another time and a way of life that we would know nothing of otherwise.

    Thank you Earl J Haley...
