    Lane Frost may be the greatest bull rider ever. A wonderful film which explores Lane's beginnings and his rise to the top in bull riding, Watching the sport, which he loved, take his life is moving and touching. Stephen Baldwin is awesome as Tuff Hedeman (probably the 2nd great...( read more)est bull rider). If you're a fan of rodeo, bull riding and/or PBR, you will love this film.
