Reviews
Highly recommend this passionate story from America's beloved Queen of romance, Danielle Steel. Lee Horsley brings the heat as rugged cowboy Tate Donovan, and Lindsay Frost is perfect as Samantha Taylor, the blonde New Yorker who flies to California to visit longtime friend Caroline Lord at the ranch.Fueled by passion, anger, tragedy, desire, heartbreak and triumph, "PALOMINO" will warm your heart, bring out all the possible emotions a human can feel. Well-written script by Karol Ann Hoeffner, who adapted Steel's novel as well as other Steel books.As a longtime Steel reader, I've enjoyed a wide array of her TV movies, but this one claims the prize as the most loved.The breathtaking scenery of southern California and the rolling, golden hills provide the perfect romantic backdrop, along with horses, cowboys and a great cast. PALOMINO will not disappoint.
I LOVED Palomino! The horses are so beautiful and it was put together so nice.I just can't get enough of a good love story and this includes those horses.I didn't know Lee Horsley was a horse lover and rodeo person. He is so handsome in this movie and so is his co-star.I would recommend this movie to anyone!When he finally found out that she was crippled,It didn't matter to him and that is a true man.I'm glad that it ended so nice because they should be together.The ranch is beautiful as well and really does show how the real cowboy went through his day on the ranch,it's a lot of hard work.I want to see more of Lee Horsley now that I've watched this movie,like Matt Houston for example.
This movie is very inspirational and beautiful. Not only because of the choice of venue, but the actors as well. Lee Horsley is incredibly sexy as Tate (I'd say we all need to see more of Mr. Horsley). Eva Marie Saint plays a wonderful monarch to the ranch. Anyone who wants to see a heartwarming, beautiful, and sexy movie needs to see Palamino.
