Girl-and-her-horse story with some peril might inspire kids.

Tells the true story of a runaway orphan who gets a job in a traveling stunt show

Audience Reviews for Wild Hearts Can't Be Broken
This movie is okay. I guess I like it when she goes blind, and when cliff roberton tells her she needs bigger boobs.

Wonderful movie.

Gabrielle Anwar was 21 years old when she played Sonora. I thought she was maybe 14, no more than 16 except when she got her hair done and put on make-up I thought, "DANG! She looks 21." But then when the love scenes played out I became increasingly disgusted because she kept kissing a guy who looked like he was 30. Indeed, Michael Schoeffling was 31 in this movie. The huge age difference was very distracting to the story line. I couldn't tell if she was supposed to have grown older from the school days or if the love story was happening over a longer period. Other than that, this film was inspiring and fun to watch, even if Sonora was a bit of a spoiled brat. I still liked her for her fire and spirit. She was also very beautiful!
