Does anyone else feel like its Ironic that she miss matched her socks, now everyone pretty much does XD. Teenagers do anyways, Im pretty sure she started it. -nodd nodd-
@LibertineBathory That's EXACTLY what I wanted to say, you assfucking wanker! Yeah please die you ugly silly butt face! You're as dumb as a cow, you piss drinking, hairy hemorrhoid!
@LibertineBathory Oh please go and die you fucking asshole! You have not the smallest clue, so don't talk crap, you son of a bitch. You're a nosey parker, so piss of you fucking bastard. Screw you, I really, really hope somebody will come and kill you slowly and cruel.
"The horses sometimes dived four times a day, seven days a week. There are allegations of using prods, electrical jolts, and trap doors to get unwilling horses to dive." That's a real story! And the horses suffered in reality!
@Schlimmification Some of the shows did that, but not all of them. The SPCA went after the Carvers but could not shut them down becaue they could find NOTHING WRONG with the way they treated their horses. Look it up. Gosh, ignorance. And you hoping that someone would kill them slowly and cruelly is a reflection of how you treat humanity. And THAT my friend, is wrong!
@crosscountrytc Man, you're very naive. You can't tell me that it's not a bad abuse making horses diving into a pool from that high. And even if they jumped voluntarily: Do you really think it's a natural way they were kept? Do you think they had a paddock? Or enough space to run and being a horse? Sometimes they dived four times a day, seven days the week. In these days it was normal that horses lived in very little boxes with no fresh air. Because they were there to work.
@Schlimmification I've done my homework on this subject. The Carvers let their horses out and treated them with the utmost respect and love. As I told you, the SPCA investigated them and could find nothing wrong. Do you think the SPCA would not have taken into account what you have spoken about? It's public record, I encourage you to do some research and look the case up. I have a question, do you ride? Do you enjoy equestrian events? Horse races?
@crosscountrytc This film has nothing to do with the reality, you know? Ah I hate people who thinks they can make horses happy with a little bit of love and let them out a few hours every day. That's unnatural! Hello!
@Schlimmification And another question, do you wear Nike shoes? Wal Mart shoes? Do you speak about the injustice to other human beings, making an eight year old kid slave for 20 hours in a hot factory for a few pennies a day? It's not natural for a child to work like that. It's not natural, by your definition, for a horse to even be ridden in the first place. If horses are supposed to run wild and free, don't you ride one again.
@crosscountrytc No I don't wear Nike shoes. Or Wal Mart shoes. I don't eat meat, eggs or drink milk. And no I don't ride horses. I don't enjoy equestrian events. Don't talk with me as if I'm a consumption fixed kid that "loves" animals. Who spoils his pets and eats meat from unbelievable badly treated cows and pigs. Don't judge me, you don't know me. It's important to think a bit more. I would have a guilty conscience if I did these things. But if you can live with it, just go, do it!
Even though she went blind Sonora did'nt let it stop her from doing what she wanted to do which was diving horse and people telling her that it could'nt be done
@caylorblanton Oh sorry, I forgot that horses love to fall from nearly 60 feet high into water. It's so natural for them, you mast be a true animal expert.
Damn, she took it so much better than Mary Ingalls when she went blind. So much more calm and accepting of it, learning to do for herself without a teacher.
she can still hear and cliffard knew that al would tell her what he was doing. it's what everyone says...(i want you to SEE something) even the blind say it to eachother.
Mr. Schnieder is such a jerk!!! All he thinks about is money, when someone has been hurt!!! I understand that it's the Great Depression, but when someone is hurt, that is NOT the time to think about money!!!
Did they not have swimming goggles in those days???Wait, the dude on the motorcycle should have loaned her a pair. Maybe eye protection was not common sense then?I know its a movie, but a little sense would have prevented her blindness:)
If you wear goggles when you jump of off a board at that high of an altitude, and land in water deep enough that a relatively tall horse is submerged, the pressure change can pop your eyeballs out.
I'm probably way wrong but in National Velvet, isn't the mother Samona? I vaguely remember the mother showing Velvet the pictures of her diving. Ahh! I'm a bit confused.
Well, at least she got to see how hot her boytoy is and when they get old she'll still remember the young hot man she married and not the old wrinkly one...lol
I hate that guy named John Slater. She gets hurt, & all he can think about is the money. I know it's the Great Depression, but come on! He looks like he's making pretty good money by the looks of his suits. The guy is an egocentric- rich snob!
Yep, I heard that too. He wanted to get away from the Hollywood lifestyle. He already knew how to make furniture, so he started his own carpentry business.
Thank you for posting this movie! I haven't seen it since I was a little kid! Plus, I never realized that Fiona from "Burn Notice" was the lead in this! Crazy!
I know! It looks everything is going so horribly wrong for Sonora & Al. First, Al's pop dies, Sonora goes blind, and Al get's pressured by his agent regarding the show... So sad :(
