The Black Stallion (#765)

A wild horse saves a young boys life after a terrifying shipwreck and the two become unlikely friends in Carroll Ballards cinematic tour de force, adapted from Walter Farleys classic childrens novel. From the crystalline shores of a deserted island to the green grass and dusty roads of 1940s suburban America, Ballard and director of photography Caleb Deschanel create a film of consistent visual invention and purity, one that also features a winning supporting performance by Mickey Rooney as a retired jockey and a gorgeous score by Carmine Coppola.
