Second Chances

I saw this movie on the Animal Planet channel, and it was really a sweet movie. It was about a little girl who was injured in a car accident that claimed her father's life. She and her mother move into a trailer park, and next door is a stable. She soon falls in love with a horse named Ginger, who has also gone through some rough times. The two of them form a bond, and begin Barrel Racing. This was just a really nice story, with good acting. I recommend it to anyone, but especially people who love animals and horses.

This movie, in a time of cheap, talentless, tawdry movies, is a breath of fresh air. It has some great actors. There is two actors from the Nanny in this movie. It is sad that one of it's lead actresses died at young age (33) of internal infection. This movie shows morals and decency. It shows humanness in time of difficulty. It shows overcoming a tragedy and a time of healing brought about through a young girl's love for a horse and a horse's love for a girl. There is good acting. The movie leaves you feeling good and desirous to watch it again. There should be more movies of this caliber. Must see.

Super family movie; the plot is predictable, but enjoyable anyway. It even jerks a tear or two. I highly recommend this movie for families with young children and/or morals, as it contains no sex, no violence, and no strong language! It's also a great movie for horse lovers.

Good movie. Really enjoyed it. Feel good movie. They need to make more movies like this.

As it begins, one thinks, "Here's another unhappy child-meets-horse and is cured movie." But, stick with it--it's an excellent (and said to be true) story. The 11 year old heroine is a bit weak only in the few scenes calling for sorrow, but she more than makes up for it with her especially graceful posting. The adults all seem to be accomplished actors, with many TV roles' experience. It was good to see Stu Whitman again. My only negative is the painfully loud "background" or theme music. All the songs appear to have been written and performed by the person(s) in charge of dubbing the music, and I guess he wanted to be sure it could be heard. (Keep your remote volume control in hand throughout.)
