Sonora, knowing that the time is right, instead decides to run away from home and follow her dreams. Unfortunately, her aunt is unable to keep up with expenses and tells Sonora that she will have to go to an orphanage now. Even if it means dealing with bad hair days! She has dreams of becoming famous one day and will do anything she can to achieve that. She is in her late teens and lives with her strict aunt in the countryside. The film takes place during the Great Depression where we are introduced to our main character, Sonora Webster, played by Gabrielle Anwar. Did it break my heart? Read on to find out! I personally hadn’t heard of this film at all until I decided to watch it for this blog. Carver was still alive at the time to see the film (she lived a very long life dying in 2003 at the age of 99). 30 years later, Disney released a film based on the memoir entitled Wild Hearts Can’t Be Broken. In 1961, the horse diver, Sonora Webster Carver, wrote a memoir about her life entitled A Girl and Five Brave Horses.
