Story Synopsis

Bite The Bullet was written and directed by Richard Brooks. It is about the people involved in a 700 mile endurance horse race. This type of racing was very popular between 1880 and 1910 with contests ranging in distances of 650-1200 miles. The story is based on an actual event sponsored by the The Denver Post; a 700 mile race from Evanston, Wyoming to Denver, Colorado. The race is re-created in the film on locations in Nevada’s Valley Of Fire, Colorado and Alamagordo and Taos, New Mexico, and the all-star cast makes this an exciting adventure.
