Sports reviews of Challenge of the Champions - DVDCustomer Review: The REAL story of Lane Frost and Red Rock
Let me say right off the bat that I am totally biased towards this documentary - but then, what happened was part of my life and I'm in it. Aside from that - it's the real story of Lane and Red Rock and a lot of other people. When 8 Seconds came out 20 years ago or so, I was mostly amazed at how much Luke Perry looked like Lane sometimes - I thought he and the other actors did a great job.... it wasn't but a few years after Lane had died and it was a Hollywood version of what happened - they got some of the characters totally wrong - including Red Rock!!! and I think I was still pretty raw - it made me too sad to watch it. Except that they used some of my photos in the credits and if you wait until the very last Reba song is over you can see my name along with other photographers whose photos were used in the credits. David's film "Challenge of the Champions" isn't the Hollywood version.. it's what really happened - with real people talking about how they really felt and feel now - including me. If you loved 8 Seconds, do yourselves a favor and see this one too. There is a lot of actual footage of bull riding and interviews Lane did with George Michael, as well as interviews with John Growney who owned Red Rock; Kendra Santos who was writing for the ProRodeo Sports News at the time and now runs the show; Jacki Romer who was one of the first Justin Sports medical trainers on the road and who worked with Lane as well as anyone else who needed sports medical assistance; me - the itinerant rodeo photographer who started all that by doing her Master's thesis at UC Berkeley in photography on the sport and culture of professional rodeo, since it was a culture she knew nothing about to begin with - who ended up being Lane and Red Rock's PR person - and later worked with John and Growney Brothers Rodeo Company; Tuff Hedeman and Cody Lambert, Lane's travelling partners and co-competitors; Lane's folks Clyde and Elsie Frost; George Michael of George Michael Sports Machine and others.
