FLICKA: Country Pride movie review



From the pages of Mary O'Hara's popular novel My Friend Flicka, the year's most inspiring coming of age story arrives just in time for Mother's Day when Flicka: Country Pride gallops on to Blu-ray and DVD May 1 from Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment. Directed by Michael Damian (Flicka 2, Marley & Me: The Puppy Years), Flicka: Country Pride stars country music superstar Clint Black (Flicka 2), Lisa Hartman Black ("Knots Landing") and Kacey Rohl ("The Killing") in a heartwarming adventure for the entire family.


When Toby (Black) takes on a job at a stable with Flicka in tow, the owner's teenage daughter Kelly (Rohl), quickly bonds with the wild horse. A budding equestrian rider, she hopes to break Flicka for an upcoming competition, despite her mother's (Hartman Black) disapproval. With the competition approaching, a rival trainer stealing business, and a growing fear they may be forced to sell the stable, Toby steps in to turn things around for Kelly and her mother.


Grammy Award® Winner Clint Black is one of country music's superstars with over 20 million albums sold worldwide. Having written over 100+ songs including 23 #1 songs Clint is an active philanthropist overseeing numerous charities.
