Technicolour film version of Mary O'Hara's novel. Roddy McDowall stars as Ken McLaughlin, a wayward boy who shows little application in his studies, and whose relationship with his rancher father, Rob (Preston S. Foster), is troubled. To teach Ken responsibility, his father asks him to choose a young horse to train and care for. But his father is doubtful when Ken selects a feisty young filly - Flicka - whose mother is notoriously tempestuous. Will Ken's dedication, love and hard work pay off, and produce a fine mare of the skittish young filly?

Please note this is a region 2 DVD and will require a region 2 (Europe) or region Free DVD Player in order to play.   In this touching family film based on the celebrated novel by Mary O'Hara, ten-year-old Kenny McLaughlin, a rancher's son, desperately wants a horse of his own. When his father finally agrees to let him choose a foal, Ken picks Flicka, a beautiful but high-spirited filly who comes from a bloodline considered to be hopelessly wild. It is up to Ken to prove Flicka is tamable or risk losing her. Along the way, Ken and his family learn some important lessons in this poignant tale of love, patience, faith, and "hope beyond hope."   Actors Roddy McDowall, Arthur Loft, Diana Hale, James Bell, Jeff Corey, Preston Foster & Rita Johnson Director Harold D.
