Organnall Too much about the plot just didn't add up, the writing was bad, some of the scenes were cringey and awkward,

Gutsycurene Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

calvinnme Each and every review of this film just gushes praise for it. I saw it yesterday on TCM and it was just unbelievably bad. Another poster on the message boards hit the high points - bad acting, bad direction, horrendous dialogue. I actually thought the cinematography was good but not great. I give it three stars because the idea was a good one, it's just a case of terrible execution on every level. This is not from some teenager who appreciates only comic book action movies. I was born in the year this film was made and I am ordinarily a fan of child-bonds-with-animal films including 1969's made-for-TV movie "J.T.", 1934's Sequoia, and the 40's "Rusty" series of films, which has also been airing on TCM as of late.I knew the film was in trouble when plastered in huge letters across the entire height of the screen was the name of someone I'd never heard of before as though he was Orson Welles or Spencer Tracy - Don McGowan. What followed were acting, writing, and directing credits, all by people with the same last name. Thus part of the problem could be that the film seems to be almost completely a family affair, so probably a family of film makers working on a project can't really be objective about the quality of a relative's work. My favorite scene: a real western fight breaks out over Snowfire and these manly men of the west are armed with - tree branches??? It really was ridiculous. And don't get me started on the girls - not twins - dressed in identical clothing.Most everyone here reviewing seems to be remembering it fondly from childhood, so I'm prepared to get pelted with eggs and tomatoes for writing this review. I think what has happened in most cases is that because this film is so rare they are remembering it from many years ago, and watching it again might be like revisiting your elementary school once you are grown - the fact is that the halls and the auditorium are much smaller and far less grand than what is enshrined in your memory. Only to cure yourself of your childhood illusion - assuming you want to do that in the first place - do I recommend you watch this film.

Mark Snowfire was my favorite as a child also...I would so much love for my grand children to see it and enjoy it just like myself and my family did back then. Would be willing to pay a c-note to get it. Still can remember the theme song as the white horse was running. If I remember right the show was filmed on the family ranch out west. They have the rights I believe or something like that. Sure would like to see it again someday. Surely someone can get it viewed again. I do remember reading there was a fire at WGN and some copies of the old classics were destroyed. Then when I ran across this page it gave me hope again.Its a shame that movies of this quality theme are not around anymore. Flicka never held a candle to Snowfire in my book.

Kathrine Jenkins I thought I was the only one that remembered this moo vie. Ah, June 5, 1958 at the Liberty Theater in Great Falls, Montana. A Saturday double feature with the Littlest Hobo. Almost 10 years old and so in love with horses that I lived and breathed horses. I only got to see it the one time but Molly McGowan and Snowfire cross my mind quite frequently. Especially when she was going to brand herself . . . edge of the seat suspense! The only part of the song I can remember is . . . Snowfire . . . running free . . .. Does anyone know all the words to it? To see it again would be the greatest. This is the first search results I have had gotten a hit on when looking for the movie. Who can I write to, to get the movie out on DVD or even VHS?

sking0223 this was one of my favorite movies back in the 60's. I remember my sister and I would check the TV guide every time it got delivered to see if Snowfire was on. I have seen it so many times but it's been so long, I don't remember the entire story line other than the young girl, Molly, understood the horse that everyone thought was wild/killer. The first time I saw it, I thought it was a great storyline of the friendship between horse and girl. How I longed to be her. What a beautiful horse he was. I am not sure if the movie has been on however when we watched it, it was back in the 60's. We always wondered whatever happened to the cast/movie.
