DVD Reviews
You probably have to be a kid or a teenaged girl to like
this one. It is very mediocre. I wanted to like it because
of Kris Kristofferson being in it, but it was just so
predictable.
Kristofferson plays a farmer who is losing his ranch. He
is good at raising horses, but hard times have forced him to
sell it off. His wife tries to save the farm, but it doesn't
work. His daughter falls in love with this black horse
that has appeared on their land. They decide to enter the
horse in a local horse race to try to win the prize money,
which will save their land. Guess what happens!
Kristofferson does a fine job, but the woman playing his
wife looks more like his daughter than his wife, and the
girl playing his teen daughter seems more like his
granddaughter. He is too old to be playing this part,
basically. Or else they should have explained why this old
coot is with someone like her.
The "Making of" Feature was actually better than the
movie itself. Still, it was good to have a feature of any
kind.
