This family-friendly show was produced by Salt Lake-based talent:"The Wild Stallion" (HaleStone, 2009, G, $16.96).Local
filmmaker Craig Clyde's latest stars Miranda Cosgrove, of the
Nickelodeon channel's "iCarley" series (though this was filmed before
she got that gig).
Cosgrove plays a teen city slicker who yearns to take photos of
horses in the wild. She's also curious about the legend of a black
stallion that is much talked about, although no one's actually seen the
animal.
She and her country-savvy pal (Danielle Chuchran) find the wild
horses, including the mysterious black stallion, only to discover
thieves are rounding them up for drug experiments.
The impressive adult cast includes Connie Sellecca as a widowed
rancher, Fred Ward as Cosgrove's father, Paul Sorvino as the local
sheriff and Robert Wagner as the chief bad guy. You may also recognize
local actors KC Clyde, in a comic role, and Corbin Allred, atypically
playing a villain. Sam Cardon contributes a nicely understated score.
