In reply to Deb. Hi Deb Thanks so much. I have been looking for the name of Return of October forever. Obviously the memory plays up I don't know why it had such big impact on me at age 7 but am so glad I found it thanks to your help. God bless.

Hello All,
I am looking for a film that I think is from the 30’s or 40’s. Been searching the web for about a year now and can not find anything. I can only remember bits and pieces of the movies so please bear with me. The start of the movie the man has a young horse and meets a woman who will become his wife. The movie basically entails their life and the horses rise to fame and fortune. As I recall there is live race footage in the movies as well. any help would be much appreciated.

In reply to Betsy Koscher. The Black Stallion. I think Mickey Rooney (at an old age) was also in the movie as a horse trainer. The boy is on a ship that sinks. He and a horse survive and live on an island until he is found and rescued but he does not want to leave the horse. Maybe that's where the horse in water image comes from.

I am looking for the name of an older movie. It is about a guy who comes to live with his uncle or grandpa. The older gentleman has a horse. The younger guy was not allowed to race or even drive cars. He also falls in love with the neighbor’s daughter. The horse gets left out one night and gets sick. So the two men rush out to get him and bring him in. They eventually take him to the races and he wins. 1930’s, maybe 1940’s.
