Seabiscuit...

Yes, I am back with "Seabiscuit". I am feeling pretty good now. Are you wondering like, "yeah we know, continue with the blog!". Hmm, that means you did not read my previous blog. Read it, and you will understand what I meant by that sentence...

So class, we were talking about "Reservoirs and their sideeffects on nature". I know, I know, that was a poor joke. What to do? When I am happy, the 'PJ-index' in my language goes up...

Seabiscuit is a little bit slow at the beginning. We feel like it is some sort of documentary thanks to the frequent visits of our narrator. And it also does not help that stories at three different places are shown intermittently. We will not be able to understand too much from those initial sequences. But as in the case of any literary classic, we have to be patient before giving our verdict. But then classics have their fame which will make us go through those initial chapters...

ok, the synopsis of the story goes like this. A horse, which is not a good racing horse in terms of physique or looks, which goes on to become the best horse in US. And while it does that, it helps patch up the lives of three men whose lives were getting miserable day by day.

But more than the plot, which is very good, I liked the love which is projected through out the movie. The love in the eyes of the trainer for a lame horse. The love of the owner's wife for the Jockey's misery. The love of the owner for the jockey, the horse and the trainer etc. I am failing miserably to describe the feelings they had for each other...

The movie just captures whatever we want to see in this world, love, care and above all, hope!

Brilliant, to say the least!!!
