Ponies

Year Published: 1972

Complete Record: Because there is no intrusion of narration, this film irresistibly evokes self-expression in a variety of forms: oral, written and pictorial. It provides an effortless introduction into reading about animals. In addition to being a provocative starting point for the imaginative creation of a child’s own stories, it lends itself to developing interest in related areas, from ecology and pet care to the warm family relationships shown among ponies. The story is simple: ponies frolic on hilltops, in streams, in wood and meadow. They are seen and heard eating, drinking, and sleeping. A foal is born and struggles to use its wobbly legs. A pony is curried, groomed and schooled by his young mistress and wins a ribbon in the show ring. Captures a colorful kaleidoscope of mood and motion through brilliant cinematography and its accented by specially composed music.
