No Horse Jumps, Says Barker: Game-show host and animal-rights activist Bob Barker wants people to boycott a film in which horses jump from a 10-foot platform into an 11-foot-deeptank of water. “Wild Hearts Can’t Be Broken,” which is being filmed in Myrtle Beach, S.C., is about a woman who rode the famous Steel Pier diving horse in Atlantic City, N.J., during the 1930s. Lou Philips, production executive for the movie, said that producers have exceeded American Humane Assn. standards.
