D.H. Lawrence's tragic fable The Rocking Horse Winner is faithfully transferred to the screen in this 1950 gem. John Howard Davies, the young star of Oliver Twist (and the future chief film editor at the BBC) plays sensitive lad Paul Grahame, whose selfish, grasping mother (Valerie Hobson) warps his values.
DH Lawrence's short story of the same name is, unsurprisingly, loaded with sexual metaphor. In this story of a boy who rides his rocking horse to a delirious frenzy as a means to predict real-life racehorse winners to save his once glamourous mother from debt, Lawrence is seeking to draw a parallel between oedipal sexual drives and the pursuit of wealth.
