Cinematic Commentary: Like Horses?

Even though Christmas is behind us, it’s always time for a movie about horses, determination, and family.The movie, The Horses of McBride, is exactly that. Even better, it is based on a true inspirational story that takes place in a small town in British Columbia in 2008, with the movie produced in 2012.


Aidan Quinn and Kari Matchett play the part of parents of Mackenzie Porter, a caring and determined girl who finds a pair of horses who are stranded in a snowstorm in the mountains nearby. Determined to save them, she works tirelessly against the odds facing her.


The film is available at Springfield’s Lincoln Library and on Hulu, Amazon and Google Play.
