About Mel Priddle
Expertise
Films have been my great love since the age of four when I saw my first. I am particularly knowledgeable on the films of John Wayne, Frank Sinatra (and his music) and Elvis Presley (and his music), but I will try to answer any question relating to movies from 1900 to the present day.

Experience
I am an ex-cinema manager and film publicist.

Subject: A question about a movie

Question
I am trying to find the title of a movie that I saw years ago(during the late '70s)but the movie is like from the mid or late '60s. It was about this boy that apparently was in some way autistic. he gets a white horse as a present and becomes very close to this horse. towards the end the horse is drowning in some kind of quick sand and the boy is desperate and talks in a desperate cry for help. I would like to find this movie, but I need the title. I have the strong impression that it is a British film. Please help me find it, I am a little obsessed with it.

Answer
Hello Ricardo,

That's "Run Wild, Run Free" from 1969.......

"Philip Ransome, a northern English boy about 10 years old, has been mute since the age of three and spends his days roaming the moors alone. His parents despair of a cure. One day he sees a wild albino pony with blue eyes and befriends it. A kindly retired colonel who accepts Philip as he is, a girl his age, and a pet falcon she gives him provide him with more things to love and care about. Gradually Philip emerges from his shell. But the way out is full of heartbreak and setbacks."
