Synopsis:

Young Ken McLaughlin has problems. The boy keeps getting into trouble and is not doing very well in school, much to his father?s chagrin. His parents come up with a plan to teach the boy some responsibility. They give him a young colt to take care of. Soon the colt becomes sick and Ken has to try to nurse it back to health and win the approval of his father. This family film, directed by Harold D. Schuster and starring Roddy McDowall, spawned a sequel released in 1945, entitled Thunderhead - Son of Flicka.

2 out of 5 stars Awesome horses - less than awesome actors   July 17, 2007

Sorry, but I just cannot get past Roddy McDowall's English accent. He's supposed to be a Wyoming rancher's son, yet he speaks like a Brit. No one else in the entire movie speaks like a Brit so it comes off as really annoying. It ruins the whole movie for me.
PS - I love Roddy in nearly everything else I've ever seen him in - especially "How Green Was My Valley"

Roddy McDowall is an Icon in my book. Well made, well written. Great, classic coming of age/learning responsibility story. Excellent for the family.

Based on the novel by Mary O'Hara, My friend Flicka is set against the backdrop of a modern-day ranch in Wyoming. It tells the story of Katie (Alison Lohman), a teenager who dreams of running her family's ranch, much to the dismay of her father (Tim McGraw); his hopes are pinned on her older brother.

The original was great, so it will be wonderful to see what they can do with it. Not to mention Tim McGraw will be in it!!
