Rating:

For his sophomore effort, director Gary_Ross re-teams with Tobey_Maguire and William_H._Macy, stars of his directorial debut Pleasantville, for this depression-era sports drama about the legendary racehorse, Seabiscuit. Unlike 1949's fictionalized The Story of Seabiscuit starring Shirley_Temple, this version attempts to present a factual account of the story, which centers around the three men who saw the famed horse to victory. Jeff_Bridges stars as Charles Howard, an entrepreneur who owns the unlikely racehorse. Howard teams with partially blind boxer-turned-jockey Red Pollard (Maguire in his first performance since annihilating the 2002 box-office in Spider-Man) and horse trainer Tom Smith (Chris_Cooper fresh off his best-supporting actor Oscar for Adaptation). Together, the three work to help the famed horse to several symbolic victories that helped to inspire a downtrodden 1930s America. The supporting cast, headed by Macy, includes Elizabeth_Banks (Spider-Man) and real-life jockeys Gary Stevens and Chris McCarron. Matthew Tobey, Rovi
