Cherrie Bailey –
Really great movie.
Arrived quickly. New in the wrapper. Great price.
Thomas A. Donahue –
Excellent acting start to finish.
This movie is the best love story I have ever seen. It is a movie for ADULTS who have toughed it through life’s challenges and kept leaning forward. Obligations, commitments, promises come to matter more as we age. This movie captures that excellently. It’s one of my all-time favorites.

Heals the heart, strengthens the spirit.
The Horse Whisperer is not a typical Hollywood movie. But then, none of the films Redford has directed, are in any way typical. The first time I really took notice of his work, was after seeing “A River Runs Through It”. He had managed to tell a brutal, sad story in a mystical way that held me spell-bound.Whisperer takes that feeling one step further. It will hold you and then squeeze your heart till the tears come. This is not a sad film however. It is the story of a spiritual journey that a family makes with the aid of a talented guide, Tom Booker, (played by Redford himself). Each of them takes their own paths but make it through some trying times, emerging stronger than when they began.The story gets going as a result of a terrible accident involving two young girls who are out riding in icy, lightly forested terrain. The lone survivor, Grace, is traumatised by the loss of her friend, her foot and, in another way, her horse Pilgrim. Not that Pilgrim was killed, despite the wishes of the local veterinarian, but it was not the same, sane horse that it had been.The normal tensions that existed within the family are magnified by the aftermath of the accident. Grace becomes withdrawn, suffering guilt and shame which show themselves in her bitterness toward her parents, Annie and Robert. At the same time she makes a connection between herself and Pilgrim. The horse’s fate seems to be a grim portent of her own future; scarred, maddened and kept in a dark and lonely place.Annie’s desperate search for a treatment for Pilgrim is therefore very understandable. She hopes to build a bridge back to the world for her daughter, by healing Pilgrim. Here enters the almost magical legend of the Horse Whisperers. A breed of men, so in tune with horses, that they are said to be able to talk with them… to look into the soul of the beast and calm its raging spirit.Tom Booker seems to have a healthy scepticism for the legend however and makes his down to earth philosophy pretty clear from the first moment when we hear him say, ” Well truth is, I help horses with people problems.”Despite Tom and Robert’s reluctance, Annie drags Grace from her pit of despair, to cross the country on the slim hope of making everything right again, on a Montana ranch, with a little help from a horse whisperer. Her expectation are rudely shattered within hours of arriving. Tom doesn’t act like a paid specialist. From the outset it is clear to him that young Grace needs as much healing as Pilgrim. And this is a load he seems more than capable of bearing.By now we are well and truly hooked by the story. But the best is yet to come. Redford clearly loves the great outdoors and his feeling shouts from the big screen. Montana must be God’s own country because it is breathtaking. Now add a dash of wholesome family values, good old hard work, reluctant romance and a pinch of equine shamanism and you’ve got something special.The Horse Whisperer is a movie that makes you feel like dozing in the long grass, on a lazy Summer afternoon. Don’t be afraid of grass stains; go see this unusual film and have a roll in the grass for me.

Worthwhile and skillfully made by Robert Redford
First, I want to say that this film does depict some very graphicly difficult scenes BUT still if you can handle that it’s also a beautifully done film and a well spent 2 hours. Horse Whisperers can work with difficult to train horses and horses that have endured trauma. Robert Redford and Kristin Scott Thomas are both great actors. And, this is the film debut of Scarlett Johansson, who plays a girl who’s 14 yrs old with a wonderful bond with her horse and all things horseback riding. They endure a devastating severe accident and subsequent trauma both the horse and girl have to be painstakingly guided and worked past because of it’s life changing aftermath. It’s difficult to get past the initial part of the story but the story from the time of arriving on Robert Redford’s character’s ranch is beautifully breathtaking and very much, worth the wait. The characters are well fleshed out and there’s not one false move in how it’s filmed or how the story’s told. It fully captures the grandeur of the scenery and cowboy way of life.. Robert Redford not only co-stars but also directs. He is a very nuanced director and perhaps an even better director than an actor if that’s possible! I highly recommend!

Great Movie Robert Redford Never Disappoints
Robert Redford still has “IT”. This movie never gets old. I haven’t seen it in many years and wanted to watch a good movie with a plot, no flashing scenes, just a good story with a wholesome overcomer story! SO many great actors and the scenery is amazing!Many aren’t aware that Buck Branaman actually helped Robert Redford with the scene where “Pilgrim” lays his head in the young gal’s chest. “Buck” is another fantastic movie you should check out as Robert Redford is featured in that movie discussing how Buck helped save the scene!If you’re looking for a heartwarming movie with amazing scenery, great cinematography, fantastic acting, a meaningful deep story and people doing the right thing, this is worth your time! Directed by Robert Redford … yeah baby… Robert Redford!
