Movie Review: *****Seabiscuit (2003)

Seabiscuit 2003  This movie was totally delightful.  Seabiscuit is the horse.;   It features Jeff Bridges as Charles Howard, the owner of the horse, Chris Cooper as Tom Smith the trainer, and Tobey Maguire as Red Pollard, the jockey.  All the main characters have had their downs, and they all have something to prove.  This movie is about overcoming.  Seabiscuit was used to train other horses.  To instill confidence in the other horses he was held back, and became use to losing.  The trainer sets out to find his real heart.  To  me Smith is too old.  Charles Howard’s son died in a car accident, and his wife left him.  Red Pollard has been kicked around his whole life.  The world of a jockey is a dog eat dog world.  He has lost his vision in one eye from abuse.  This movie has a great positive message.
