The Cowboy and The Queen – Dates Announced in Theaters across the USA
Exclusive: Watch the Trailer for The Cowboy and The Queen
While telling the story of this extraordinary friendship in “The Cowboy and the Queen”, Nevins celebrates Roberts’ view that kindness and connection are more powerful than brutality, and that openness and communication can bridge worlds, if given the chance.
The film, which tells the story of Queen Elizabeth’s unique friendship with an American horse trainer, will be showing in theaters and streaming on MasterClass this fall. When articles about Monty Roberts’s innovative non-violent approach to horse training landed on Queen Elizabeth’s desk, it was being the beginning of a decades-long friendship.

“The Cowboy and the Queen” Documentary is a Historical Feat
“Nevins and editor/writer Graham Clark put forth a solid foundation for the film cleverly intertwining Roberts’ life with milestones in the Queen’s life, all the while staying true to what brought the improbable pair together: a deep love for horses and perhaps an even greater love for kindness and peace.”

MONTY ROBERTS AVAILABLE FOR SELECT INTERVIEWS:
The New York Times bestselling author and world-renowned horse trainer Monty Roberts is available for interviews.
MONTY ROBERTS first gained widespread fame with the release of his New York Times Best Selling book, The Man Who Listens To Horses; a chronicle of his life and development of his non-violent horse training methods called Join-Up®. Monty grew up on a working horse farm as a firsthand witness to traditional, often violent methods of horse training and breaking the spirit with an abusive hand. Rejecting that, he went on to win nine world’s championships in the show ring. Today, Monty’s goal is to share his message that “Violence is never the answer.” Roberts has been encouraged by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II with the award of the Membership in The Royal Victorian Order, as well as becoming Patron of Join-Up International. Other honors received were the ASPCA “Founders” award and the MSPCA George T. Angell Humanitarian Award. Monty is credited with launching the first of its kind Equus Online University; an interactive online lesson site that is the definitive learning tool for violence-free training.
JOIN-UP philosophies can be seen at work with both humans and horses across the world, from farms to major corporations. To learn more about Monty Roberts or the many applications of his Join-Up training methods, visit www.montyroberts.com
