Review - Miracle of the White Stallions
An interesting story, but played rather dully with a slow-moving plot.

Description: | It's WWII, and Col. Alois Podhajsky is charged with protecting the Lipizzaner horses of the Spanish Riding School in Vienna. The problem is that the Nazis won't allow him to take the horses out of the war zone, and they've already moved the mares into Czechoslovakia where they are in danger of being destroyed by the Russians. Without orders, Podhajsky and his few remaining trainers take the horses to a remote castle, then manage to interest Patton in the their plight. He sends an army across the border into Czechoslovakia and rescues the mares. |
