Blue Rodeo (1996)

Synopsis of Blue Rodeo

When Maggie Yearwood (Ann-Margret) threw her cheating husband out of the house, her son Peter (Corbin Allred) became so distraught that he attempted to kill himself--and after emerging from a coma, Peter had totally lost his hearing. Now enrolled in the Riverwall School for the Deaf in Arizona, Peter is a surly, resentful loner, as angry at his mother as he is at his current lot in life. Hoping to mend fences with Peter, Maggie pulls up stakes and moves to the town of Blue Dog, some 25 miles from Riverwall. Here she meets an enigmatic rodeo cowboy who calls himself Owen Wister (Kris Kristofferson)--and who has more than his own share of emotional baggage. How the fates of Maggie, Peter and Owen are interwined provides the dramatic substance of the made-for-TV Blue Rodeo, which was based on a novel by Jo-Ann Mapson and which originally aired October 20, 1996 on CBS. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
