More than a tale of a ranch being saved
I can't believe I'm the first one writing a so-called review.
I cannot call this a review because it's mostly just based on my feelings.
There are some things I don't love about this movie, but thankfully, there is more to love than not. The two main characters, the supporting characters, including the horses, and the beautiful scenery, more than compensate for the things I didn't love about this TV movie, but definitely do not hate.
I love the relationship between Father-in-law and daughter-in-law. No, they don't have "something" going on between them. Their love for each other is like a love of a parent for his child in purest sense and vice-versa.
I also love how Autumn's extended family looked out for her.
As for Jake, he's really charming, but he just beats around the bush too much.
Of course, conflict was necessary, but...
Oh wait, I said I won't give spoilers, so I won't.
There's magic between CINDY BUSBY and KEVIN MCGARRY, and I could only speak for myself, I think these two were very convincing as Autumn and Jake. They seemed like they were attracted to each other from the moment they met, but of course, the falling in love was gradual, thank goodness for that.
The horses are lovely, and I must agree with Autumn, they are very perceptive.
Oh, speaking of horses there was this thing that bothered me at first, but later on I learned this:
Soldiers would mount up on their horses left sides so that their swords, anchored over their left legs, wouldn't harm their horses' backs. ... Make sure your horse is comfortable with you mounting and dismounting on either side. (source: Horse & Rider---they say mounting on the left is just tradition)
FYI Kevin McGarry's character, Jake, mounted Coco on the right side, while Autumn and Maddie mounted their respective horses from the left that's why I thought of checking if it was perfectly alright.
I never thought to ask before. I just thought it was a given that we should mount on the left. You really learn something new everyday. Better late than never.
Hmm...what else?
Oh, most of the horses used for lessons in any riding school are usually trained, so even it was perfectly fine for Jake not to fall down Coco even if Autumn hardly trained him because Coco is well-trained, and in other words, Coco's an expert in handling newbies.
I better go now or I might give spoilers...I hope the thing about mounting horses and Jake riding a horse would not be considered as such.
Thanks for your time.
