Watch Buck Online Free Many moviegoers may not realize that Buck was an important part of The Horse Whisperer starring Robert Redford, Kristin Scott Thomas, and a young Scarlett Johansson. He was a stand-in for Redford and gave advice on the scenes involving horses. He also stepped in for the occasional scene, using his horse to get a certain behavior that was necessary for a scene. The Hollywood trick horses that were brought in for the movie could not accomplish in six hours what Buck and his horse were able to do in fifteen minutes.
While most people will go into Buck expecting to see a documentary about horse training, the film is not just about the horses. It is a documentary on Bucks life. Many do not know of the horrors he suffered as a child with his brother at the hands of his father. His father regularly beat his sons. Buck and his brother, Smokie, were pretty famous as kids. They were trained to be the youngest blindfolded trick ropers and performed on TV and other events. If the performance was not perfect, the boys knew they would get a severe beating. The boys were eventually taken from their father and placed in a foster home with a loving couple who, for all intents and purposes, became their parents.
Follows horse trainer, Buck Brannaman from his abusive childhood to his phenomenally successful approach to horses. A real-life "horse-whisperer", he eschews the violence of his upbringing and teaches people to communicate with their horses through leadership and sensitivity, not punishment. Buck possesses near magical abilities as he dramatically transforms horses - and people - 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. An ordinary man who has made an extraordinary life despite tremendous odds.
Sundance Festival and Channel founder Robert Redford opened up the Fest with his customary press conference, where he talked about new Sundance initiatives and Slamdance. As a big supporter of the doc Buck, about the original inspiration for his film The Horse Whisperer, it was no surprise when the film sold to Sundance Selects. Redford opened the fest with the debut screening of Sing Your Song, a doc about his old friend, Harry Belafonte, 82.
Real life horse whisperer is the subject of Meehl's heart warming crowd pleasing documentary. I mean it's a film full of pretty horses, shot in stunning Midwest ranches with pristine high definition imagery and a whole lot of soothing southern accents and country charm. Watch Buck Online Free is the comfort food antidote to an inordinate number of heavy dramas at this year's festival.
The Buck in this film is Buck Brannaman, the inspiration for the book and movie, The Horse Whisperer. But, as I suspected, there's no 'whispering' involved in Buck's work and it certainly doesn't have the ethereal spirituality of Robert Redford's film, but it's no less fascinating to watch Buck magically put even the most feral horses at ease and have them following his every move like he's been training them for years.
