Black Beauty description
Don't waste this one on your children: buy it for yourself. A spectacular adaptation of the Anna Sewell novel, this is faithful to the source material but creates a life of its own on the screen. Told from the point of view of the horse, it recalls a time and a place that could be both beautiful and cruel. Black Beauty faced both hardship and kindness as he passed through the hands of many owners throughout his life. Some are generous, but the agonies endured by the title character may be too harsh for small children. Unfortunately, director Caroline Thompson did not resurrect her magical touch a few years later with another animal tale, Buddy. --Rochelle O'Gorman |

Beautiful, Moving, Emotional
|
| I remember reading the story of Black Beauty as a child. I was about 10 when I first began reading the sweet words describing his birth, and the sadness that was evoked when describing the passing of his friend "Ginger". I cried as a child, and equally so, wept as an adult. Movies of this quality are rare and don't come along too often. With that being said, it was an absolute joy to sit and be immersed within the story, landscape and emotion of this film. I had the good fortune of viewing it on Animal Planet this past week, and do intend on purchasing it. I know that it will make a wonderful addition to my growing Equine Film collection. For those who have not had the good fortune of seeing this movie, please do so. I am sure that you will come to love horses as much as I do. They truly are the most magnificent of creatures, and make the most beautiful centerpiece for a story of this scale and beauty. |
