The tale of three lost men--Johnny "Red" Pollard, a young man whose spirit has been broken; 
Charle Howard, a millionaire who lost everything; and Tom Smith, a cowboy whose world was 
vanishing--who found each other and discovered hope in a down-and-out racehorse named Seabiscuit, 
who took them and the nation on the ride of a lifetime.

==========

In an era when Americans were in great need of heroic figures to help them forget their troubles, 
SEABISCUIT comes to the rescue. The picture relates a moving story of friendship and devotion in 
rehabilitating the main characters'fractured lives, as it interweaves the interactions between 
horse, jockey, trainer and owner and their adoring fans. The film accurately portrays the real 
people and events of those troubled times and how Seabiscuit "fixed us, every one of us."
