My Friend Flicka—terrific family film—shows gentleness in its
simple story. Roddy McDowell (known for the Planet of the Apes (1968)
playing Cornelius) shows his early acting talent in this movie as he endeavors
to bond with the horse of his choice. This movie is the prequel story that led to the television
series My Friend Flicka and shows how that relationship developed. A
believable, child/adult share movie with no hard-core, violent scenes.

effort. Thank you to Producer Ralph Dietrich for making the film possible. Cast

Buy a ticket? Yes? No? Maybe?
Yes. This movie is a terrific addition to the
home video library. It’s clean, honest, very human, and reminds us of outdoor
life and what it is like to work with real animals in real life situations. The
acting is very realistic and completely works. Great work for all involved in production.
