In one respect at least movies have improved enormously since the 30's-through to the 50's.I refer to the quality of child actors,with the posturing moppets of that era giving way to more adroit and skilled performers like Osment,Woods and even Maculkin.Sadly,the juvenile leads here are a throwback to the earlier era and do not suggest any great skill in the thespic arts.Pausing and gulping visibly before delivering lines the moppets-2 male,1 female slow down an already funereal pace to an extent that the movie becomes irritating rather than cute They play kids who decide to stowaway in the car of a teenager driving to see his girlfriend with the idea of capturing wild mustangs.They become embroiled in the kidnap of a prize winning horse by some villains who never remotely suggest genuine menace being as incompetent as the pair in Home Alone The scenery is nice but that's about all the movie has going for it
Avoid ,unless you like horses or pine for the scenery west of the Mississippi
