riding tall in the saddle

A mixed match romantic movie featuring a hard luck rodeo rider and a Vasser dropout who picks him up along the way.a much deeper and honest story than most corny love stories.The two leads speak free flowing dialogue not stagy stuff.this film is also known as Riding Tall.

A down on his heels rodeo cowboy meets a Vassar coed in Santa Fe, sparks fly, and both fall in love.

This is one of my guilty pleasures! This movie featured a wonderful performance by Gilmer McCormick and certainly one of Prine's best work. This is a movie that when it's all over, you say, "How come that doesn't happen in real life?" It is a genuinely feel good movie. However, it was defeated by a low budget which limited shooting possibilities. It was not marketed in major markets and so no one saw it. I have been looking for it on cable TV for 30 years. I have emailed Turner Classic Movies and AMC to place it on their schedule to no avail. I would love to obtain a copy on VHS or DVD to add to my favorite movies library.
