Review of National Velvet (1945) by S S — 12 Nov 2012
Ok, I'll admit it--I fell for this one pretty hard. Mickey Rooney was a pure delight and this is the best time I had watching Liz since "Father of the Bride." Wasn't prepared for the short hair, though.
..talk about a transformation unlike anything I've seen since "Yentl." Felt myself gasp before I could suppress it. Also struggled a bit with the horse faltering on the leaps, since I'm well aware this was before animal regulations.
*shrug* 'Tis history.
