Horse Movies!Hello, horse fans and mystery fans and horse mystery fans!
This week we hope that you’re also movie fans as Lezah and Dave discuss their favourite (and maybe not so favourite) horse movies.
As people who are and have been closely involved in the world of horses and the horse industry, Lezah and Dave bring a different viewpoint to these films – seeking an accuracy that is beyond the scope of the average movie fan.
What makes a good horse movie? What horse movies would the hosts recommend? And what horse movies should they watch?
Some of the horse movies discussed were:
- The Horse in the Gray Flannel Suit – a sentimental favourite for Lezah with excellent show jumping footage from a different era
- Secretariat – a pretty good biopic that suffers, in Lezah’s opinion, from the miscasting of the central character
- Sea Biscuit – an excellent biopic that offers authentic period details of the horse world of a bygone age
- National Velvet – a horse fantasy that fails to appeal to the initiated
- Lean On Pete – a deep, loving study of the multi-level connections between humans and animals
- The Rider – an elegiac love letter to the character of the horseman
- Buck – an amazing documentary of a deeply intuitive teacher and trainer
- Jockey – a sad movie detailing the final days in the career of an aging jockey
- Harry and Snowman – the plucky story of luck and talent meeting in the jumping ring
- Unbranded – a criminal story of the tragic murder of wild horses as the Wild West is tamed by its last inhabitants
We told you what we thought, and now it’s your turn. What’s your favourite horse movie? Knowing their tastes, what horse movie would you recommend to Lezah and Dave?
