New 11 episode series coming to Prime video. It’s a modern day spin on the classic, sort of, with the central character a young Black woman wanting to compete in the Olympics.
I like that the girl’s family owns a horse farm and that the character herself comes from what are more realistic horsey circumstances (wealthy family, educated in Europe, etc.) than Hollywood likes to portray. Yeah, there’s the promised cliche of rogue horse that only the protagonist can communicate with, but even with that I think I might have to subscribe to Prime Video short term.
