The Black Stallion W I D E S C R E E N - Movie DVD
NEW — W I D E S C R E E N — Edition! ON SALE!!!!
The beautiful, original, Academy Award winning, 1979 film. Directed by Carroll Ballard. Encoded for Region 1 (U.S. and Canada).
Adapted from the beloved novel by Walter Farley, this 1979 family classic was hailed by no less than hard-to-please critic Pauline Kael, who wrote that "it may be the greatest children's movie ever made." A visual feast from start to finish, the timeless tale of The Black Stallion plays out on almost mythic terms. A young boy survives a shipwreck and is stranded on a deserted island with a graceful black stallion, with whom the boy develops an almost empathic friendship. After being rescued and returning home, the two make a winning team as jockey and lightning-fast racehorse under the tutelage of a passionate trainer, played by Mickey Rooney in an Oscar-nominated role. From its serenely hypnotic island sequence to the breathtaking race scenes, this delightful film is guaranteed to enthrall any viewer, regardless of age. The Black Stallion is a genuine masterpiece of family entertainment. --Jeff Shannon

The Black Stallion Returns Movie DVD
NEW – W I D E S C R E E N – EDITION
The fabulous sequel. Directed by Robert Dalva. Starting in Zagora, Morocco and ending in Tunesia this was on of the most demanding horse films ever made. With a huge cast and crew working deep in the Sahara dessert there was always the possibility of something wonderful or tragic just around the corner. The song of the Berber tribes filled the night air and brought together families that had been parted for generations! Fantastic scenes of wild horses free in The Black’s ‘hidden valley’ were filmed. (1984)
A rare sequel that can stand alone, 1983's The Black Stallion Returns is both a fun follow-up to the 1979 Carroll Ballard/Francis Ford Coppola film and a fine adventure in its own right. Kelly Reno returns as the now adolescent, deceptively ordinary Alec Ramsay, who stows away on a plane for Casablanca after the titular horse is kidnapped by Arabs. Getting him back pitches Alec into the middle of tribal rivalries and all sorts of complicated, dangerous intrigue. The cast includes Teri Garr, Vincent Spano, and Woody Strode, but the real star here may be cinematographer Carlo Di Palma, a veteran of several Woody Allen films and a master of color, light, and framing. Director Robert Dalva edited the previous film and happily executes countless ideas he appears to have stored up from his first stallion outing. But it's Reno's resourceful hero--his anti-Harry Potter normalcy--that finally takes hold of viewers. --Tom Keogh

Customer review;
In 1979, shortly after Francis Ford Coppola completed ‘Apocalypse Now’, he started work on Walter Farley’s masterpiece about a beautiful horse that escapes a shipwreck with a young boy, and the two return to the United States and become a competitive horse-racing team. That story, of course, was ‘The Black Stallion’.
As with ‘Apocalypse Now’, Francis Ford Coppola’s father, Carmine, composed the score for ‘The Black Stallion’. A better score could not have been created for this wonderful movie. For the record, this is the complete soundtrack – all the original score (and some unused cues, such as ‘Fire on Board’), are included here. The best musical tracks seem to come after Alec & ‘The Black’ as he becomes known, reach the remote island after the shipwreck. Piano cues depict the horse as he appears on the beach, racing across the sand in front of Alec’s cave that he uses as a shelter. In the sequence where Alec rides the stallion across the sand & through the surf, the orchestra gives a triumphant melody of brass & percussion cues as the two race through the surf. The score, one of Coppola’s last, was a triumphant work that deserved an Academy Award.
A marvelous soundtrack, which any movie/soundtrack collector would be happy to have!

When the steamer Drake is shipwrecked off the Spanish coast, only two passengers survive. One is Alec Ramsay, a young American boy. The other is the Black Stallion, the wildest of all wild creatures. Stranded together on a desert island, boy and stallion develop a deep and wonderful understanding. The Black Stallion is the horse Alec has always dreamed of – beautiful, free-spirited, and astonishingly strong. Alec is determined to tame him and bring him home to New York. But the job turns out to be more difficult and dangerous that he ever thought possible, for a wild Arabian stallion will not settle down easily into the quiet American countryside. Generations have been captivated by Walter Farley’s heartwarming story of the extraordinary horse and the boy who loves him. To this day, The Black Stallion remains one of the best-loved books of children around the world and a classic of children’s literature.
