Seabiscuit (2003)

Engaging 2003 film based on the true story of Seabiscuit, an unlikely racehorse winner in 1930s' US. Jeff Bridges plays the owner, Tobey (Spider-Man) Maguire the irrepressible jinja jockey, Red Pollard, and Chris Cooper the quiet but effective trainer.

Rich colours throughout and an equally rich, piano-based soundtrack from Randy Newman. IMDB 7.4/10
