Mi Taylor is a young wanderer and opportunist who finds himself in the quiet English countryside home of the Brown family. The youngest daughter, Velvet, has a passion for horses and when she wins the spirited steed Pie in a town lottery, Mi is encouraged to train the horse.
Editor's Verdict
"National Velvet is a compelling family drama centered around a girl's ambition to race her horse in the Grand National. None of the core elements of the plot, setting, or themes are tied to the Christmas season."
