Editorial Review: From Amazon.com: This gorgeous 1943 family film stars Roddy McDowell as a Colorado rancher's son who takes a shine to a colt named Flicka and chooses to train her. The boy's father (Preston Foster) isn't happy about the idea: the horse is an offspring of a stormy mare who may not be right in the head. For a while, Flicka seems determined to prove the rancher's point, fiercely resisting young McDowell's efforts at domestication. But persistence and love win the day, and Flicka grows up to be a magnificent animal and friend. The film was shot by director Harold Schuster and cinematographer Dewey Wrigley as if for the ages, marrying such perfect elements as a Technicolor sweep of the beautiful Rocky Mountains setting with a wonderful story, plus McDowell's charismatic earnestness. Based on the Mary O'Hara novel, this film was popular enough in its time to inspire a couple of sequels, though the original best stands up as a perennially worthy adventure tale for kids ages 5 and up. --Tom Keogh Customer Reviews
Average Rating:
 Rating:  - FlickaThis is is my favorite movie of all time. I have been watching this movie since i was two and i am now 12. it show what hard work and love can do for you and something very important to you. Rating: - Childhood dreams and responsibilitiesI have not yet seen the movie but have read this book so many times i have lost count. This is my favourite story and Ken's feelings were close to what I felt growing up. Lots of kids day dream and such was Ken's dream to own his own horse one day. When dream becomes reality, Ken deals with all the ups and downs that must come with responsibility of ownership. I fell in love with Wyoming in my own mind and I am hoping that the movie will live up to my image of Wyoming and Goose Bar Ranch. A truly heart warming story... Rating: - Flicka hits close to homeWell, owning a horse named flicka, i figured it was my deauty to read/watch it, luckly it wasnt wasted time, i found it heart worming cinderella story, although the tear jerker parts ripped my heart out. Rating: - A Classic Horse MovieWith beautiful scenery and lots of horses, this is a great family movie. The bond between a boy and his filly is the central theme of "My Friend Flicka," and it would be enjoyed by any horse lover. Although a bit old-fashioned, it is exciting and interesting nevertheless. A shorter, simpler, less mature version of the classic novel, I reccommend it. Rating:  - An ok movieThis movie was ok I guess, the boy was a little hick though! :) Kind of sad, kind of sappy-bad actors. I guess the horses were beautiful though, so that at least deserves some stars. I wouldn't recommend rushing out to buy it though, it's not the best movie in the bunch thats for sure! |
