In the film, Coman tames not a horse, but himself. The process of getting along with wild horses is actually a process of trying to face, accept, and reflect on himself.

When Koeman roared at the wild horses at the training ground, I felt that they were a kind of "human being" who didn't have enough patience and was equally eager for understanding. Only when the most repressed emotions in my heart burst out and expressed, did I know who I really was. and find yourself longing for love and hope. Koeman didn't hesitate to kick the wire fence when Marquis was about to be euthanized by injection, letting Marquis run away in a state of supplication, even though it was dangerous to do so. I think this is the most exciting part of this movie. What Koman let go was not a horse, but himself, because in the days of cuddling with wild horses for warmth and getting along day and night, he has accepted himself by relying on horses , and entrusted the horse with the desire for a new life outside the cage.

As a prisoner who has been in prison for 12 years for hurting his wife on impulse, Koeman is actually lucky because there is still a daughter waiting for him. But in real life, when people commit numerous crimes due to helplessness or excessive emotions, how many such situations are there?

The Mustang 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".
