An intriguing and fascinating documentary about the amazing and strong willed horse trainer named Buck..At a very young and tender age, Buck began to perform rope tricks along with his older brother and soon became a local star. People lined up to see Buck and his older brother perform. Although the boys seemed to have a wonderful life, their life behind the scenes was terrifying. Their father treated them very harshly and made living with him a horror. Buck's mother hindered his aggressive behavior but after she died the father unleashed his full wrath on the kids causing Buck to leave his home and begin his professional career with horses.
"To be great you must be sensitive". Buck advocates a very benevolent approach to horses. One of Buck's strong beliefs is that the way you treat horses resembles the way you treat other human beings and any inner conflict problems one has with his or herself. This documentary teaches life lessons and general respect for animals rather than simply forcing a horse to do as one wishes. If a horses is broken in using harsh methods, the horse is going to be very aggressive in response and extremely unhappy. This movie provides a different yet effective method of approaching horses. The comments of other horse owners further strengthen Buck's reputation by advocating his methods and stating how efficient and productive they are.
As an individual who hasn't been around horses, i can't compare or even being to comprehend how strong and skilled Buck truly is. Even so, this movie gave me a taste of how skilled and powerful Buck is. This documentary is not the most exciting but as a viewer who knew nothing about horses, I felt this documentary was definitely intriguing,informative and interesting to watch.
