Dreamer (98 minutes)
My alternative title would be: Sea Biscuit II
SUPER MOVIE FAN'S RECOMMENDATION: 3, See It
Who is in it?:
KURT RUSSELL, DAKOTA FANNING, KRIS KRISTOFFERSON and ELISABETH SHUE
What is it about?
Dreamer is based on a true story, of Mariah's Storm who ran in the 1995 Breeder's Cup. DAKOTA FANNING is awesome as Cale, a girl who believes in a broken horse and a dream. KURT RUSSELL is her dad, a trainer who ends up with the broken down, Sonador as severance when he is fired. Sonador can't breed and it takes the love and faith of Cale to find hope for her family and for the horse.
When and Where does this movie take place?
Kentucky horse farms, mostly in Lexington.
Why see it? Nice performances by KRIS KRISTOFFERSON, KURT RUSELL and especially by FANNING make this a worth-see family movie. The horse component is worth if for us racing fans, Wayne.
How about the kids?
PG for some tense moments. A great family film.
Video Pick of the Week
The Wizard of Oz is out on DVD this week, Wayne. It is one of the top five movies ever made. There is no place like home.
Next week, we'll review, The Legend of Zorro, ANTONIO BANDERAS and CATHERINE ZETA-JONES are back as Alejandro must decide between family and his cause as California is about to become the 31st state. Should be fun.
John Fischetti can be heard Friday's on the Wayne Perkey show on Oldies 103, WRKA and can be reached at fischettij@uncw.edu
