It was just released nationally but already has won Sundance and some other awards.<br \/>\n&#8220;Buck&#8221; is an interesting film for horse and non-horse people. It&#8217;s about training and that means YOU as well as troublesome stallions. Buck is the real life person they based the character on in &#8220;Horse Whisperer&#8221;. At the screening I went to the film maker was there and she had some fascinating stories about making the movie. If you get a chance &#8211; <strong>really<\/strong> &#8211;  check it out.<br \/>\nTake your date, your Mom, or the kids, everyone can get something out of this film.<br \/>\nSave me a seat, I&#8217;ll go again!<br \/>\nThis is where the movie is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.buckthefilm.com\/playdates.htm\">showing<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>This is the brief synopsis;<br \/>\nYour horse is a mirror to your soul, and sometimes you may not like what you see. Sometimes, you will.\u201d So says Buck Brannaman, a true American cowboy and sage on horseback who travels the country for nine grueling months a year helping horses with people problems.<br \/>\nBUCK, a richly textured and visually stunning film, follows Brannaman from his abusive childhood to his phenomenally successful approach to horses. A real-life \u201chorse-whisperer\u201d, he eschews the violence of his upbringing and teaches people to communicate with their horses through leadership and sensitivity, not punishment.<br \/>\nBuck possesses near magical abilities as he dramatically transforms horses \u2013 and people \u2013 with his understanding, compassion and respect. In this film, the animal-human relationship becomes a metaphor for facing the daily challenges of life. A truly American story about an unsung hero, BUCK is about an ordinary man who has made an extraordinary life despite tremendous odds. <\/p>\n<p>Have a GREAT weekend, it&#8217;s summertime, gotta luv that!<br \/>\nSee you at the show,<br \/>\nAll your friends at Hopeful Farm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Saw an interesting film lately.
