It Started with a Horse - Mullinville KS, Population:266, Stoplights: 1, Coffee Mugs: 26,000, Rebel Artist: 1 M.T. Liggett was born in a claim-shack house outside of Mullinville, KS. M.T. attended 4 different Universities and obtained degrees on the GI bill after he was discharged from the military.&nbsp;He and his twin brother Byron were enlisted in the military by their father on their 17th birthdays as a way up and out of dustbowl poverty A freshly sober Liggett focused his chaotic nature on becoming one of the most prolific outdoor sculpture creators in the United States. His controversial, enormous, and weighty ‘totems’ can be found lining M.T.’s property on Highway 400. Hundreds of his pieces spin and twirl in the Western KS wind. It Started with a Horse is a one-of-a-kind look into the life of a talented and polarizing artist over a period of 20 years. The crew became very close with M.T. before he passed, and the film directly reflects the unlimited and unfiltered access they enjoyed.
