I purchased this DVD in this hopes of showing it to our church youth group. The bio and story line sounded good and I guess in a way it was ok. The movie ran for 98 minutes but really only had enough story and action for 30. Lots of lovely scenery, background music and fluff. Beyond that it was time wasted. There is no way this dragging, poorly written story line would keep the interest of any audience.

While the movie moved very slowly and contained very little dialogue...the music, cinematography and scenery was absolutely beautiful!
As I said, the movie moved very slowly but at the end of the movie it became clear, from our perspective, that this is "exactly" how GOD moves...very tenderly, quietly and with exquisite care for each individual. We wept as we felt HIS presence in "Ashe's" troubled life reborn. "Wonderful Movie"!
I went searching for the soundtrack and even accompaniment cd's but found none...very disappointed. I would love to see this soundtrack produced and distributed. Also, I would "love" to find Liesel Brooks song "Broken"...what an amazing ballad of an individuals struggle and GOD'S amazing grace!!!

The movie's dialogue is so stilted, cheesy,and slow. Not at all what I thought it would be. It would not keep anyone's attention. I think the filmmaker tried making an 'artsy' film, but it really fell flat. Would not recommend.

I thought this would be a good movie for our girls for a movie night, but it was so slow, I didn't get through it, so I know it wouldn't work for tweens.

Our family was very disappointed in this film. If you watch the trailer you have nearly seen the entire movie. The rest of the film was filled with images of the countryside accompanied by repetitive piano music. We have four teenagers in our family and they were extremely disappointed.

Review 7 for Saving Winston, DVD
Overall Rating:
A movie with a lot of heart
Date:March 6, 2012
Ashley is a troubled teen who is sent to live with her Aunt Diane after being released from treatment. Ashley adamantly pushes her aunt out of her life. When she discovers a neglected horse, Ashley seeks Diane's assistance in helping the horse (whom she names Winston) to recover. In doing so, Ashley sees that there is more to life than her own problems. She also sees for the first time that Winston isn't the only one who is broken.
One of my favorite parts about this movie is the example Ashley's Aunt Diane sets for her. Diane is a strong Christian who, while not perfect, seeks to live her life for Christ. Diane never preaches at Ashley, but instead shows her what it means to be a Christ follower through her own actions. Diane's patience, kindness, and compassion do not go unnoticed by Ashley. We also see at the beginning of the movie that Diane is praying for Ashley. It's a fair assumption that Diane continues to pray for her young niece throughout the entire movie and never gives up on Ashley, even though Ashley stumbles and, at times, yields to temptation.
There are some great discussion points in this movie. Ashley struggles with drug abuse. While on probation, she is instructed to have no contact with her boyfriend. Yet, she makes the mistake of disobeying that order. It is a good example of why the choices we make are so important. They not only affect us, but also affect others. While there is some deep subject matter, I found this movie to be appropriate for those ages nine and up.
Saving Winston is slow at times, but the end result is worth it. This movie has heart and shows how, no matter how broken we are, Jesus still loves us and yearns for us to find salvation and peace through Him.

I was disappointed in the movie - there was not enough action to hold a teenager's attention, in my opinion.
