The Cinematographer’s Daughter Broke Her Hands
Dean Semler, the film’s cinematographer, collaborated on-set with his daughter. She was one of the numerous horse wranglers needed for the film. While riding, Semler’s horse startled and threw her. In the process, she fractured both of her wrists. Her efforts, however, did not go unnoticed. Dean, her father, won an Academy Award for cinematography for Dances with Wolves. The Semlers weren’t the only ones who suffered injuries while on the job. This was only one of the many difficulties that came with working with animals on set.
