      Not a mustang after all

      This is a story about a prisoner, and the film depicts the prisoner's relationship with an unruly wild horse. After watching the whole movie, I feel that the name of the movie "Wild Horse" is not only because horses almost occupy the C position in the film, but it is even more difficult to say that it is not to describe people's hearts.

      I'm not very clear about the original intention of the screenwriter to write such a drama, but the biggest feeling of this...

      Mustang

      There are so many stories of people and horses, especially in the American film theme, the close relationship between horses and people is more than others, which is probably the original complex of this vast land. This film borrows the title to describe the heart of prison criminals, recovering in the process of training horses. There are so many stories about people and horses, especially in the theme of American movies, the close relationship between horses and people is more than others....

      [Film Review] The Mustang (2019) 7.3/10

      A redemption tale inspired by an actual inmate rehabilitation program in Carson City, Nevada, THE MUSTANG is surprisingly directed by the French actress-turned-director Laure de Clermont-Tonnerre as her debut feature.

      Complying with recent precedents, such as Chloé Zhao's THE RIDER (2017) and Jacques Audiard's THE SISTER BROTHERS (2018), which indicate that an outsider's status can...

      The project itself is special enough. It is both caring for wild horses and kindness to prisoners. Animals have healing powers. The film as a whole is very restrained and restrained, and even the conflicts within the prison are handled very low-key. But it is also like the male lead's forbearance and violent character. Recognize our mistakes and value the power of an apology. He opened his heart and found relative freedom in his dealings with horses. The farewell after selling the horse and the...

      There is no ups and downs in the plot, the pace is very slow, and you can even guess the next plot. But it is very real. It tells you slowly, and you will unconsciously blend into it, feel it, experience it, and learn how to get along with others, with yourself, with nature, and with the...

      The story is so simple that there is almost no waves. The wild horse is a metaphor that can be seen at a glance (human and human hearts, rights and freedoms), tame what can be tamed, and let others return to freedom and wildness. There is no absolute logical sequence, only Right and wrong timing. The whole film is ingeniously controlled and the rhythm is appropriate, although I watched it for three days before I finished it...

    Evaluation action

    The theme of redemption that the film wants to express is actually reconciliation and understanding. It is redemption in the spiritual sense, and may not necessarily be related to the direction of destiny in reality. Roman and The Mustang Marcus, two individuals who were originally in an isolated situation, now find similarities to each other, understand each other's situation in silence, and reconcile their minds, but they still have...

    Movie quotes

    • Psychologist: You've been in isolation. What do you think about that?

      Roman: I'm not good with people.

    • Martha: When I was six, I, uh, started to write letters of support to your parole board. But your parole was always denied, so I thought it was my fault that you were still in prison, because I wasn't a good enough writer. Then, when I got older, I understood. You didn't want to get out. So I stopped writing. I kept one of those letters. "My dad is fun. Send him back home".
