"The Rider" is a Western movie directed by Chloé Zhao and starring Brady Jandro, Tim Jandro, and Ryan Scott, which premiered on May 20, 2017, at the Cannes Film Festival.
Adapted from the personal experience of Brady Jandro, the Western movie tells the story of Brady, a cowboy who underwent craniotomy after falling from a horse and was injured, but he was still obsessed with the sport of horse fighting he loved, so he continued to persist in his dream despite the risks.
On September 15, 2020, the National Art Film Projection Alliance revealed that "The Rider" has been confirmed to be introduced to mainland China.
Director Chloé Zhao went back to visit the Indian reservation several times after filming the film "My Brother Teach Me Songs". During this period, she met Brady Jandro in the basement of a horse farm, and she was attracted by the cowboy who competed in horse racing. , Chloé Zhao told Brady Jandro that he wanted to make a Western movie about him. In April 2016, Brady Jandro was injured in an accident. In June, Chloé Zhao had the opportunity to meet again with Brady Jandro. Although doctors told Brady Jandro to stop fighting horses, he sneaked out of the hospital two weeks after surgery and continued to ride, which inspired Chloé Zhao's story.
Most of the Western movie's non-professional actors were filmed in and around the Indian reservation. About 40% of the film, based on the true story of Brady Jandro, is a real plot and 60% is a fictional story. Brady Jandro, while not sitting down to type with Chloé Zhao, was still involved in more than half of the script.
The Western movie is a documentary, part of rodeo realism that both romanticizes and demystifies the cowboy lifestyle.
A remarkable blend of fiction and fact, The Rider is a riveting drama that delivers authenticity in a similar way, making it one of the most poetic of films. The film dramatizes Brady's traumatic process and gently novelizes it. Brady's soulful eyes and reserved enthusiasm draw viewers into the story. He recreates every moment of life's wounded moments with incredible stoicism and psychological depth. Brady Zandro instinctively expresses this cognitive pain in a way that goes deeper than posturing.
"The Rider" is a masterpiece, an elegant work of cinematic poetry that elevates real-life struggles to the heights of Western movie art. With incredible cinematography, James Joshua Richards brings the Dakota Plains to their natural beauty, providing the perfect backdrop for an almost fictional performance from the real, with a deep sense of the life of people.
