Wonderful. And for those that saw the film, the book has a different ending. Beyond that the screenplay followed it closely and we learn back story that's left out of the movie which makes this well worth adding to your list. A brief 5 star review tomorrow.

For those who have not seen the film and enjoy stories of redemption and change, I urge you to add this to your list. The horse is a metaphor for what's possible in life and the characters carry it through

Nicely done in all respects. A balance of redemption, change and inspiration centered around a man with unique healing abilities and a mother and daughter in need of them

I find it it unusual that Evans didn't write the screenplay since all he'd written prior to this was scripts. But it's clear he had a say since the it followed the book closely and creative liberties studios normally take were left out

One of benefits of reading a book the film was adapted is depth of character back story. We also learn the severity of the damage from the accident to Pilgrim. Great storytelling regardless

Rare to see a screen play that follows the book as closely as this one. As a film buff the Oscar winning Robert Redford, Kristin Scott Thomas film is a work of art and it's no wonder since was the debut novel of a screen writer!
