True Classic

I looked for this movie for months as my grand-daughter really likes horses, and finally found it on Amazon. This is a true classic


A true classic

What can I say. I have had a video copy of National Velvet since the age of 10 and have finally upgraded to a DVD copy. The story is timeless, quoting an old advert "a story about a girl, a boy and a horse". Totally true, but also so much more, a host of memorable characters and a story that has you cheering every single time. The perfect feel good, genuinely nice family story. Ideal for bringing out when you need a little lift, or a bit of nostalgia. Everyone should own it.

Inpiring, beautiful, and not just for kids!

This movie is not about a girl, or her love for horses. Nor is it about a young man who is about to go down the wrong path. This movie is about faith, hope, and love, with a dash of humility thrown in. It sets a high standard -- how to win people by trusting them, and treating them with respect.

I love this movie. I'm 57 years old and have just seen it for the first time. I don't know why I didn't see it sooner. I certainly wish I had.

If you have a Bible, go read 1 Corinthians 13. This is what this movie is about, and it is a fine example of how to live your life to the fullest under the example described in this Biblical verse.

Love this movie, but the quality is not remastered...

Love this story about a girl who won a national horse race in England, but why did Warner release a movie like this to DVD without cleaning it up? It has white dots, squiggles, and even green rings in the picture. A couple of times I even saw a black line in the film, which was distracting. This is the movie that made Elizabeth Taylor a star; it deserved a respectable cleanup before its release.


Good, exciting and nostalgic fun

I purchased this vid for my mother, who was a big Liz Taylor fan at the time when Taylor (and my mother) were young. My mom's 81 now, and still really enjoyed this film. In fact, she wound up viewing it and sending it to her granddaughter (now 13)who is a horse lover. The verdict is not in yet as to whether it'll be too dated for her, but so far it's a big hit for the young and, well, not so young.

Enchantingly beautiful Elizabeth Taylor became a movie star at age twelve after starring in this classic about a girl and her jockey pal (Mickey Rooney) who transform an unruly horse into a champion.
