#76 - Buck (2011) Review


Buck (2011), Cindy Meehl
3.5/5

This is a good documentary intertwining the story of Buck's training of horses and his personal story of growing up. The horse work is amazing to watch and beautiful with the gentle handling. The film has some great interviews. However, the film lacks a bit of punch though, and at times overly emphasises the impact of Buck's upbringing I think. Some parts are incredibly moving and overall the film is great, with interesting characters. A beautiful watch for anyone interested in animals, training and psychology. Overall it is a good informative documentary about horse training, but also a moving and great human interest story.
