Bite the Bullet Bite the Bullet is a 1975 western directed by Richard Brooks starring Gene Hackman, James Coburn and Candice Bergen. It concerns a grueling 700 mile cross-country horse race taking place in the early twentieth century and the way it affects the lives of the various participants. It touches on the themes of sportsmanship, friendship, animal cruelty, the yellow press, racism, ageism and much more. Two former Rough Riders, a lady of easy virtue, a punk kid, a Mexican with a toothache ( who provides the films title), an old man and an English gentleman are the main protagonists of the race which tests not only the endurance of horse and rider but also their philosophies of life and the meaning of winning and losing.
