Three Classics And One Longshot On The Board5
With three classic releases that would appear on any tote board, it would be easy to call International Velvet a longshot which can be dismissed. But like Seabiscuit, getting past a quick initial glance will find a racer with the will of champion.

Released in 1978, director Bryan Forbes tackles the sequel to National Velvet with a keen eye on a compelling script. Nanette Newman (a grown-up Velvet)and Tatum O'Neal (her niece) are wonderful in their roles, with the storyline centering on the niece striving to become an Olympic-caliber rider.

Sir Anthony Hopkins portrays a veteran trainer who has seen many riders boast about such goals, but end up falling away when the going gets difficult. He has a special eye for talent, though, and there just may be unique potential with this young rider.

These are four movies which families can enjoy together, but the life lessons can be appreciated by adults, as much as children.

Bought this for one movie3
I bought this DVD for only one movie on the DVD. I have been looking for "International Velvet" on DVD for years and haven't been able to find it as I have the first "Velvet" movie and wanted the second. This was the only way to get it. I actually watched all four movies in succession and loved every one of them. It's good family fun with a bit of suspense thrown in. I actually enjoyed the whole thing, and though I usually like to buy my movies separately I enjoyed this group of movies immensely.

Classic Horse Favorites; 4 Film Favorites5
I LOVE International Velvet. This is the real reason I bought the DVD, but now I have 3 other GREAT movies. I appreciate the fact that they are all 'family friendly'!!
