Trivia
In the movie The character Tom was playing by Thomas Smittle who participated in the actual program that the movie is based on. Thomas was in the program from 2009-2011 and had the top selling horse in the history of the program a red roan gelding that sold for $8500.00.

Goofs
At the auction in the film, it's stated a horse is sold to the "Las Vegas Police Department." There is no such organization; Vegas' police force is known as the "Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department" (LVMPD for short).

Quotes
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".

Top review

Decent production from novice filmmakers

This film could've been award-worthy had it not been for the atrocious editing, some major plot and technical issues with the screenplay, and novice-apparent directing.

Had it not been for the exceptional cinematography by Ruben Impens with the stellar visuals and landscapes, and the amazing acting by Matthias Schoenaerts, this film would've flopped. I like Bruce Dern, but he was annoying in this film - probably from the lack of proper direction from actress-turned-director and writer Laure de Clermont-Tonnerre. The pacing and run time were decent, as was the score.

Nevertheless, and enjoyable film and a solid 7/10 from me.
