Two of my favorite actors. Fred MacMurray and Ann Baxter. Heart warming story. And of course Burl Ives singing. I grew up on movies like this. Drive-in movies, Saturday afternoon matinee. Admission 50 cents. Popcorn 15 cents with real butter. Soft drinks 10 cents and candy 5 cents. And great hot dogs. Two movies, a cartoon, news reel and coming attractions.

This movie is wonderful! So many good things to say about it. Great story and acting. The music alone, beautiful ballads sung by Burl Ives. Heart warming story line. You really get a feel about cowboys and their love and respect for horses. You will enjoy this movie a lot and always be happy you chose to watch it.

Beautiful voice of Mr Ives. The earliest of films I have seen him. The ending of the movie reminds me of a film made in the 90s, Black Beauty. A horse passed off to different owners and neglected. But finally found by accident by a former stable boy and now grown up and reunited with his beloved horse.

A beautiful movie I stumbled upon, in my grief loosing my father today. A reunion in heaven, my mother and father together again. Married 65 glorious years. Two old dairy farmers, who raised us five kids on a dairy farm. My precious mum , was a excellent horse rider. From the age of 5, would ride a horse to and from school each day.

I love this, thank you for posting, but only thing that ruined it was the fact other music was made over the original song sung before or at the campfire. I used to own the book Smoky by Will James, fact is I had two of them, read them often. How I miss reading them, but they were lost many years ago and I haven’t been able to find them anywhere. Fact is, I had many books I used to read, I’d rather read books than play games on my computer. Technology is becoming overrated and irresponsible with people ….👍❤️🙏🏼

To the person who was wondering about the song Burl Ives was singing around the campfire it was something about him holding his love to keep her from the foggy foggy dew. 😊
