    2 tissue boxes worthy

    Very good movie, well worth the time to watch.

    The two main characters, Jon Voight and Alexa Nisensen,play very well off each other and make you really like them. Voight's character is slightly reminiscent of Walter Matthau's in the movie Kotch. A superficially grouchy old guy who really cares a lot. One reviewer below seemed to dislike it because it was too cliched and full of tricks to tug at your emotions. He also complained that it had no subtitles. Subtitles?? It's in English, dude.

    Yes, it may be "formulaic" in the tearjerker style, but after all, when you get down to it, don't most movies, or stories, follow some sort of type? And this one is very well done.

    A beautiful movie

    More than a movie about a young orphan girl's healing relationship with a horse who is also an orphan, it is a story of how this relationship also ends up repairing the lives of those around her. Exceptional acting and everything else makes this movie a great one for families with older children to watch. Keep a box of tissues handy.
