Inspiration from horses

First of all, this is a true story, including the horse.
The brave and determined American knight Hopkins took an untamed wild horse to participate in the traditional horse racing competitions of Arab countries. The environmental conditions of the game are unimaginably difficult. The brave Hopkins is a cowboy of the American West. He has typical American humor and self-confidence. The bravery and perseverance of his beloved Mahai Dräger in the course of the game was shocking. Occasionally there is a little naughty.
Especially at the end of the film, Heidegger, who had fallen down due to severe physical overdrafts and injuries, miraculously stood up again when he saw his opponent surpass him, and with the perseverance that made humans amazed in disbelief. He endurance finally carried the owner to the finish line and won the victory. What impressed me the most was the look in Heidegger's eyes when he rushed to the finish line-unyielding perseverance, constant bleeding in his nose (due to injury, excessive fatigue).
Originally thought poor Heidegger would fall down. He didn't. He survived with strong perseverance. In the end, he returned to the embrace of his own nature after being in love with his owner Hopkins.
Sometimes, a good movie brings different feelings to everyone, and everyone can find the moment that touched them. When a certain spirit, a certain power, that burst out at this moment, infect you, then this whole movie will leave a deep impression in our hearts, and even arouse certain emotions in us.
