The Colt (2005)
Ryan Merriman is Jim Rabb, a young cavalryman in the Union Army who has just seen his brother killed in action at The Wilderness.
When his prize mare gives birth the next day, Jim is ordered to shoot the colt.
He can’t bring himself to do it, scaring it off instead.
But the colt returns to camp, his commanders have a change of heart, and the young horse comes to be regarded as a good luck charm for the company.
Meanwhile, Confederate Sgt.
Woodruff (William MacDonald) and his superior are trying to rejoin the Southern front line, wherever that might be.
The sergeant’s son had been badly burned as the result of a Union artillery barrage and eventually succumbs to his wounds.
Woodruff takes out his frustration on a cowardly private named Hatch (Haig Sutherland), determined to make him show some of the fighting spirit displayed by men — like his son — who have died for the Southern cause.
