Enjoy the movie more, by seeing the documentary first.

Rating: 10/10 (18 December 2003)

Learning about the characters by watching the documentary 'The True Story of Seabiscuit' before watching 'Seabiscuit', helped me become completely fasinated by the movie. In both shows the scenery was beautiful, the actors were wonderful (Chris Cooper should win awards), I learned some American history, I learned a success tip or two, and I was taken for a great ride. No pun intended. There are a few who may find this movie pure drivel and I agree that the entertainment industry has it's share of drivel, but Seabiscuit is not part of it. Millions of us from ALL walks of life loved it and were uplifted by it. I can't wait to read the book and see the movie again.
