All the Pretty Horses
Some passions can never be tamed.
Directed by Billy Bob Thornton
Produced by Miramax, Columbia Pictures
A lyrical coming-of-age Western about displacement and youthful romance, tempered by violence and the harsh realities of a world that won't accommodate idealism.
The year is 1949. A young Texan named John Grady finds himself without a home after his mother sells the ranch where he has spent his entire life. Lured south of the border by the romance of cowboy life and the promise of a fresh start, Cole and his pal embark on an adventure that will test their resilience, define their maturity, and change their lives forever.
