Some guys look great in a cowboy hat.
In The Horse Whisperer , based on the novel by Nicholas Evans, Mr. Redford has found a character which fits his screen persona perfectly. Tom Booker is the title character, a man who has a special method of handling horses. His gentle, patient, and no nonsense way works well on humans too, judging by the reaction he gets from those he encounters. Both the horse and daughter suffered severe injuries, physically as well as psychologically. Mr. Redford s natural ease in front of the camera immediately allows us to trust Tom Booker s inherent goodness.
