About this movie
Set in the rough and tumble world of professional rodeo, this film takes the viewer inside a fascinating, distinctly American subculture. The documentary follows Fred Whitfield, the first African-American All-Around Champion; up-and-coming bull riders Kagan Sirett and Mike Moore; and top-ranked clown, Don - Hollywood-Yates, through a year of uncertainty and danger. "... Shot entirely on film, this documentary - a rodeo 101 of sorts -introduces us to the players of a sport that is flirting with extinction,even as it tries to move into the modern arena of big business sports entertainment...This well-crafted film allows us to study and admire the grace and will of the many men who earn their living loving what they do. Rodeo, a modern version of a timeless subculture, is a sport that cuts to the heart of our national identity...." from IMDB.com. Featured Cowboys Include... Mike Moore (Bull Rider), Kagan Sirett (Bull Rider), Lance Brittan (Bull Fighter), Don "Hollywood" Yates (Bull Fighter), Fred Whitfield (Calf Roper), Clint Cory (Bareback Rider), Danell Tipton(Bull Rider), Mark Garrett (Bareback Rider).
