Norman "Sonny" Steele es un ex-campeón de rodeos, que ahora se dedica a vender desayunos enfundado en un traje con luces intermitentes. Alice "Hallie" Martín es una atractiva y perspicaz presentadora de televisión que haría cualquier cosa por conseguir un buen reportaje. Cuando Norman sale de un casino de Las Vegas rumbo al desierto a lomos del símbolo viviente de su patrocinador, un caballo de carreras de millones de dólares, Alice se empeña en averiguar el motivo. Lo logra antes de que les alcancen varitas patrullas de policía. Para cuando llegan a un recóndito punto de encuentro en las montañas de UTA, se ha enamorado del vaquero y de sus convicciones.

If there is a film that does not talk about how things are going in the United States, but about what Americans think their country is like and what values it stands for, then it is The Electric Horseman. This film is American not only because its protagonist is a cowboy, but also because of its pathetic moralizing and the great importance it attaches to personal initiative and individualism. And essentially, also because of the typically American studio ending. Robert Redford and Jane Fonda are great actors of their time and their names speak for themselves. Sydney Pollack is an established director who does not waste time, so a romantic drama about a cowboy who rebels against the consumer sale of his reputation in a declining show and saves a suffering horse, represents decent entertainment, which may not dazzle today, but remains functional even years later. Overall impression: 65%.
