Famous Horse Secretariat! The story behind the movie "A Generation of Proud Horses"

It is very famous and has left a strong mark in history.

But there are very few horses that can be made into movies and have photos on the cover of famous magazines such as Time Magazine, Newsweek and Sports Illustrated!

The protagonist introduced today, the "Secretariat", is one of them.

In the history of horse racing, a North American thoroughbred horse, a popular horse, later quit the race due to injury and has been raised on the farm, and the business of the racecourse is declining.

In 1968, Penny decided to choose one or two mares and pair them with this excellent racehorse, and one of the maroon ponies gave birth to a maroon foal and named it "Secretariat".

At the age of three, the "Secretariat" participated in the Kentucky Jockey Club in the United States, and only finished third in the preliminaries.

When it came to the final, it ran at the end at first, and then it accelerated all the way, winning the race in less than two minutes, and also setting a miracle in 28 years.

Later, the "Secretariat" won the Poricnis Competition, and its photos appeared on the covers of famous magazines such as Time Magazine, Newsweek and Sports Illustrated, becoming a household name. It is known as the greatest horse racer and has survived to this day along with the story of its owner Penny.

After watching the whole film, we were surprised to find that on this land, there was such a group of professional horse trainers, jockeys, and horse owners, who held their beliefs and mingled with a group of galloping pegasus.

And the whole film is a miracle, if at first, Penny, who knows nothing about horse racing, is not attached to horses, then the best galloping horse in history will definitely only spend a lifetime between the horses.

After talking about the plot, we talk about the background, in fact, the careful audience can find that there is more than one horse playing the "secretariat" in "A Generation of Proud Horses", and the main shot is completed by two horses, one playing the "secretariat" when he was 2 years old, and the other playing the older and older one.

Like the actors, Ma also has to "make up" before appearing on camera to be closer to the appearance of the "Secretariat".

It is understood that when preparing to shoot "A Generation of Proud Horses", in order to find a horse that meets the image of the "Secretariat", the staff spent several months looking for horses that meet the shooting requirements in racecourses across the United States.

The film crew prepared a large number of photos of the "Secretariat", and then the assistant director compared the photos of horse racing collected from all over the country, selected hundreds of more similar horses from them, and finally conducted a field investigation.

It is worth emphasizing that horse racing is a very pure creature, they are explosive, very proud, it is difficult to listen to the film crew, especially in the film shooting process, often in the position of the position can not meet the requirements of photography.

Therefore, the shooting of this film can give the audience a sense of scene, which is directly proportional to the damaged machine.

"A Generation of Proud Horses", no doubt, it was a success!
