1949 | Drama/Fantasy | Written by DH Lawrence | 1h 31m | Approved (Recommended for Mature Audiences)

Come see this film based on D.H. Lawrence’s short story of the same title first published 100 years ago in 1926. The film stars John Mills, Valerie Hobson, John Howard Davies and Ronald Squire, and was produced in 1949.

A young boy receives a rocking horse for Christmas and soon learns that he is able to pick the winning horse at the races.

About the writer

DH Lawrence, born September 11, 1885, was an English novelist, short story writer,

poet, playwright, literary critic, travel writer, essayist, and painter.

Pelissier’s bold expressionistic cinematography during the [rocking horse] sequences taps into the nightmare logic of a child’s dreams, spinning into delirium.”  – Jeremiah Kipp, ToxicUniverse.com
