‘Colorado Cowboy: The Bruce Ford Story’

Arthur Elgort’s graceful and appealing documentary takes us into the world of rodeo champion Ford and captures the excitement and rhythms of a man attempting to ride a bucking horse. In his quiet way, Ford, who has an authentic Marlboro Man look, is a cowboy of dignity, integrity and courage, a professional to the core and clearly a fine husband and father. Ford’s rock-solid values and timeless way of life make real the mythical code of the Old West (CMAX Wednesday at 8 p.m.).
