 Rating: - Excellent Family MovieThis is a story about LOVE; how unconditional love of family and a horse can help all involved get through the most difficult challenges.

Rating:  - I Enjoyed the DressageThis Hallmark Hall of Fame movie piled one misfortune on top of another but had a very happy ending. Young Annie's sister is killed in a car accident on an errand Annie was supposed to do, so she feels her mother blames her for her sister's death. Annie feels her mother favored her sister which adds to a growing chasm between mother and daughter. Now grown, Annie, her husband, daughter, and her horse Tolo are on their way to his new job, only to be deserted by him along the way. Annie manages to show up ... Read More |
