fresh:

TIME Magazine,

fresh:
Measures up to the promise Ballard amply provided in his first feature, The Black Stallion.

Perhaps the best thing about the film is that the wolves are never made to seem like strange but cuddly dogs. They look like wolves, not especially threatening but still remote and complete unto themselves.
– Vincent Canby,
