Sea Biscuit.

In the movie Sea Biscuit which I had never seen a man named Charles who is a self-made millionaire, has to deal with the accidental death of his young son by putting him into racing. He then comes into contact with a guy named Tom, who is a race horse who is adapting to life and the world around him. However he is impressed by Tom's abilities when it comes to horses. He then hires him as head trainer for his racing stable. When he is on the lookout for new horses he spots a small horse. His name is sea biscuit. he convinces Charles to buy him and sees something remarkable in him.
Sea biscuit would not let anyone ride him until one day the come in contact with a boy Red. Like Smith, Red has a gift working with difficult horses. He and Seabiscuit immediately trust each other, and Smith then hires him. Red and Sea Biscuit begin taking the gold and winning races left and right. They are unstoppable.
Sea biscuit becomes a quickly becomes national hero. This story is filled with such a great meaning and such a meaningful plot and summary.
I can see why books are made into movies. It gives them way more meaning and you can actually see what is going on like it is real life. However I do like books because you can use your imagination and that truly is a gift. Movies are a great part of literature and you can learn a lot by them too. Positive and negative. You take the good with the bad. I am glad I chose the movie I did because I learned a lot and I got to see the love that animal and man have. That type of connection is so amazing. And it gives the movie such deep meaning and such a type of love that no one really knows until they experience it. I enjoyed the movie a lot !
