Title: wonderful companion to the Hollywood movie
Review: I first saw the Jeff Bridges/Tobey Maguire film about Seabiscuit, and became interested enough to read the book, which was terrific and finally to see this PBS documentary, which I now consider an essential companion piece for those who enjoyed either/both of those other stories about the longshot horse who, with a motley contingent of owner, trainer and jockeys, became a champion and an inspiration to a nation held in the grip of depression. This one hour documentary is filled with magnificent old photos and fabulous film of Seabiscuit as he races and even when he first comes to the Howard barn. Commentary by Pollard's daughter and others is terrific, and DVD extras include a 5-minute interview with documentary director Stephen Ives and a photo gallery of ten champion horses.
