Plot

In the rugged mountains of Australia, a tale of endurance and love unfolds with 18-year-old Jim Craig at its heart. After his father's tragic demise while pursuing 'the colt from Old Regret', young Jim is hurled into a testing struggle. To keep his father's farm near Mt. Kosciusko alive, he must earn the respect of the high country's hardened men and prove his worth. Forced by circumstance, Jim descends to the low lands, where he finds work on the farm of Harrison, a man entangled in a bitter, decades-old feud with his own twin brother, a loyal friend of Jim's late father. In this stirring backdrop, Kirk Douglas embodies the embittered siblings, portraying a delicate balance of animosity and camaraderie. As Jim labors on Harrison's land, he is drawn towards the radiant Jessica, Harrison's daughter. Their budding love story is entwined with the fate of a missing prize colt, leading to a thrilling roundup of the wild brumbies in the highlands, helmed by the legendary Clancy of the Overflow. When Jim is accused of letting the valuable stallion loose, he finds himself caught in the crossfire of the rekindled feud, threatening both his love for Jessica and his quest to reclaim his father's farm. The Man from Snowy River is a saga of resilience and romance, set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Australian mountains, where old grudges echo and the spirit of adventure thrives.
