Movie Visualization: “My Buddy From Brooklyn” | A Gural & Jacobson LLC Motion Picture

Welcome to the official cinematic visualization reel for “My Buddy From Brooklyn,” an upcoming feature-length motion picture from Gural & Jacobson LLC, a boutique film and media production company committed to producing bold, character-driven stories inspired by real events, historical eras, and iconic personalities.

This video is part of our ongoing visual development process—an evolving cinematic tapestry that brings the world of Buddy Jacobson, 1970s New York City, and the glamorous yet dangerous golden age of horse racing, nightlife, hustlers, and hidden power structures to vivid life. Every frame you see is part of a larger creative journey: a story about ambition, charisma, loyalty, betrayal, redemption, and the razor-thin line between success and downfall in a city that never sleeps.

🕶️ THE STORY — WHO WAS BUDDY JACOBSON?

Howard “Buddy” Jacobson was more than a horseman. He was a force of nature.
Born in 1930, he rose from Brooklyn to become one of the most successful—and most controversial—racehorse trainers of his era. Gifted, street-smart, and endlessly resourceful, Buddy navigated an elite world that wasn’t built for men like him. When the establishment pushed back in the late 1960s, it sparked a transformation that would shape the rest of his life.

From the glitz of Studio 54, to Manhattan’s singles bars and penthouses, to the quiet backstretch of America’s greatest racetracks, Buddy lived a life full of vibrance, contradictions, and unforgettable characters. “My Buddy From Brooklyn” explores the man behind the headlines—the businessman, the father, the lover, the hustler, and ultimately, the fugitive.

This film brings viewers into the complexity of what happens when success collides with survival, and when a gifted individual is squeezed by institutions, relationships, and fate.
