An old-fashioned, rousing film that happens to be based on an amazing true story! Diane Lane is spot-on with her portrayal of Penny Chenery, and John Malkovich is magical as Lucien Laurin. In fact, the whole cast is so good, you immediately forget that they're actors, and are plunged into a riveting ride to the finish. I remember being glued to the screen for those incredible 3 races in '73, and reading about the people behind this amazing horse. The grit and persistence of the people shine through this uplifting movie, and the race scenes are amazing. VERY mild language, so feel free to bring the kids (they hear worse on prime time TV). Enjoy!
Yes, I recommend this movie.
