Secretariat

Watched the premier-it was predictable, of course- more about the owner than the actual horse. There were some cream cheese moments-but there was a charming cameo by the owner of Secretariat near the end. The theater burst into applause, something rarely seen these days! They did a good job of depicting what a remarkable feat his Belmont win was. It was cute-it is a Disney movie after all, but I\'d watch it again.

sekrah: Watched this the other day.   I don\'t think it was quite as compelling as Seabiscuit, but it was pretty good.   As is normal, they Hollywooded up alot of the facts (Sham won the Wood?  Where\'s that ticket I threw out?), but it is a solid feel-good movie that I would watch again (Will prob get DVD when it comes out).   The Belmont presentation was very good.

jbelfior: Was Pancho Martin\'s english that good back in 1973?

Diane Lane outstanding as usual.

Good Luck,
