Bio of bull rider and youngest-ever inductee into the Pro Rodeo Hall of Fame, Lane Frost. It's sincere; it's direct; it's, more than anything else, narrowly focussed: parents, a couple of buddies, a wife, that's it. The epilogue of documentary footage, home movies, and family-album photos persuades us that the casting was pretty good -- Luke Perry, Cynthia Geary, Carrie Snodgress, James Rebhorn, Stephen Baldwin. The last-named manages especially well with the light burden of the sidekick role: you'd hardly know he had a life of his own until after the hero gets gored to death. Directed by John G. Avildsen. (1994) — Duncan Shepherd
