Actress Hilary Swank – Accomplished Horsewoman

Hilary Swank was so committed to becoming an accomplished horsewoman on the set of The Homesman, she would take off between scenes and disappear for hours at a time. Tommy Lee Jones says, “She didn’t know about riding horses or driving a team of mules when she signed up for this but she worked at it until she was able to make a very convincing picture.”
