Throughly enjoyable from the start. An insightful journey of transformation from wild horse to trusting companion. The effect they have on the trainers cannot be over looked either.

I brought this for my dad and ended out watching it with him – despite the fact that I don't particularly like horses I found this to be an interesting and moving film. My dad absolutely loved it and I would recommend this to anyone with an interest in working with animals or breaking in horses.

Description

Wild Horse, Wild Ride is a 2011 American documentary film directed by Alex Dawson and Greg Gricus, packaged on DVD.

A handful of unforgettable characters set out on a 100-day quest to tame a totally wild mustang for a Texas competition in this stunning and poignant documentary. Among them: Charles, a Navajo grandfather out to re-capture his youth; George, a grizzled cowboy with a stubborn streak; and Wylene, a blond beauty with a theatrical flare and a nerve of steel. In three months, man and horse must transform from scared strangers to close companions. It won't be an easy journey. Bones and egos will take a beating. Fear and frustration will weed many out. But those who prevail may find themselves desperately vying to keep their horses when they ultimately all go up for adoption at a public auction.

Wild Horse, Wild Ride Documentary Reviews

“The first interactions between human and animal are fascinating, as the trainers often apply different approaches. As the horses learn to trust their trainers, connections grow into deep bonds.” The New York Times

“With its gorgeous big-sky vistas, stirring shots of the majestic mustangs and intimate bits between trainers and trainees, Wild Horse proves a warm and memorable ride.” Los Angeles Times

“You can't help feel you're watching a special kind of love story.” Minneapolis Star Tribune

“We get some sense of the horses' range of personalities; clearer is the nature of each trainer's attachmen­t.” Village Voice
