| | Horse whisperer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Rarey was protective of the tradition he had thus learned, and in early versions of his own book did not reveal how the most severely traumatized horses were salvaged by the methods originated by Sullivan and passed to him by Powell. | | | That method is fairly faithfully represented in the novel and motion picture The Horse Whisperer. | | | He kept his methods secret, but people who managed to observe him noticed that he would stand face to face with the troubled horse. |

| | Movie Review - The Horse Whisperer |
| | Annie knows that the healing of her daughter is ultimately connected to the healing of her horse. | | | Fake horses were used for the segments where the horses slide down the incline and when the truck collides with the animals. | | | All of the scenes where the horses slip and slide at the point of incline were accomplished by using trained falling horses and professional stunt riders. |

| | THE HORSE WHISPERER |
| | They seek the help of a man known as a horse whisperer to heal the horse and make him fit for society again. | | | The plot is fairly simple: A woman (Annie), her teenage daughter (Grace) and their horse (Pilgrim) travel to Montana after a tragic accident that leaves Grace and Pilgrim mentally and physically traumatized. | | | I did not read The Horse Whisperer, but I think Redford deserves a lot of praise for what must have been a really hard novel to adapt. |

| | There are four different horses in these prophecies, not counting the red horse and the black horse and the pale horse which is only in prophecy 39 as a warning of the coming tribulation as spoken of in the Book of Revelation when opening the seals. | | | The man wearing a robe with a hood, riding a Black horse, represents all that is evil firing it's arrows at the cloud which represents all that is clean and pure. | | | Revelation 6:4 (second seal) And there went out another horse that was red; and power was given to him that sat on it to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another; and there was given unto him a great sword. |

| | Amazon.com: Monty Roberts: Real Horse Whisperer (1997) : Video |
| | Horses are not the mindless creatures people make them out to be and I think Monty's methods prove that. | | | The critics giving reviews must not be true horse lovers or they would support any non-violent methods for working with these beautiful animals. | | | Still, the responses of these horses to my Monty Roberts-inspired methods of getting their cooperation and the whole experience borders on the Zen of the relationship between man and horse. |

| | SPLICEDwire: "The Horse Whisperer" review |
| | Directed by Robert Redford, who is known for his passion for the provincial lifestyle, "The Horse Whisperer" is mystical fable about the healing of emotional scars that panders somewhat to the paperback romance set. | | | His camera stares deeply into the eyes of his characters, and none more so than the horse, who has as much screen time as any of the humans while Booker works his calm magic on the disturbed creature. | | | "The Horse Whisperer" has same the leisurely-paced, sepia-toned and soft-focused flavor as his 1992 film "A River Runs Through It," another intended epic of Americana. |
