everyone is always talking about their favorites, but what about the worst?
this is a no brainer for me, and it actually has all actors and actresses I like. but im sorry, any movie that wants me to believe that a horse that wins a 15,000 clm. at Charlestown going 6f, gets claimed, rebought back by the owner in the parking lot basically, then entered in the breeders cup classic after having the supplemental fees paid by a Saudi sheik she's never met and then wins the classic, is too much for me!!
and the best part is after grandpa KK has a 257.00 win bet at 80-1, THATS when he get excited! over 20,000!! his family just won the classic, and im pretty sure I remember him being at least 10% owner .thats 200,000 right there!!
god I hate stupid movies!!!!
p.s.........but I do love Elizabeth shues boobies!!!

I cant argue with either of you. I didn't like it either. they just made it a little too sappy. and they took to many liberties with the facts. seabiscuit was 10x better then secretariat as an overall movie.

"Jockey's". Even though it wasn't a movie it still counts for something. Sutherland was so bad she can't even play a real life jockey.Every week it seemed gryder wanted to kick talamo's ass and nothing happened. The smartest guy on that show was john court who got the hell out of dodge and has made some nice change at oaklawn riding for his father in law and won plenty races in kentucky.

Evelyn,
I have a very dear friend who had a BEAUTIFUL and HUGE chesnut with a face VERY close to Secretariat's...when they auditioned horses for the movie he would have been a shoe in for sure...we sent in pictures of him running, his face, him standing still and a BEAUTIFUL portrait of him thinking he would at least be called to cast as Big Red in one scene or the other....he would have been perfect for it but alas he wasn't picked. Well when the movie came out I saw it in the theater (it WAS cool how the REAL Ms. Chenery was in the background though) and my friend saw it when it came out on Red Box...well after she saw it we talked on the phoen and she said her horse was a WAY better match and I TOTALLY agreed...he looked ALOT like Secretariat and ALOT more like Secretariat than the horse who played him. Go figure.
Re: Dreamer....I agree and LOVED all the actors...the story while based on a TRUE story of Mariah's Storm was a little sappy but it wasn't THAT bad...the storyline made it more unbelievable but it was a cute story...my niece was pretty young when that came out but still she ADORES that movie...wouldn't it be cool if BC champions REALLY happened that way? LOL!
One racing movie I thought was SO CUTE and funny was RACING STRIPES...did anyone see that? About the little Zebra??
As for the BEST..>Seabiscuit (although I HATE that one scene where they are in the shedrow and walking and OBVIOUSLY there is still cutouts of horses behind them...looks like they are walking on a conveyor belt)...and Phar Lap are the best I have seen...so far...I wonder what 50-1 one will be like? That's the Nine That Bird movie due out soon. They should do an Affirmed/Alydar movie...or perhaps another Triple Crown winner??

my two favorites are definitely seabiscuit for overall and let it ride for comedy. but if I had to watch racing stripes again I think I would be sick. lol. it was worse then dreamer actually. maybe for a six year old, but not for me.
