Re: OOC # 31
So, if you get the chance, I highly recommend the movie 'Dream Horse'. It was one of those movies that almost got lost in the scramble of covid closures and movie releases rescheduled...we've had a trailer for it for over a year. I had almost resigned myself to it being one of those movies that I only ever see trailers for, and never get around to seeing the movie itself, or it's a foreign-made movie that gets a limited release in the States...
But it got released across the US a few months ago. And it's a really touching story, made that much more powerful by the knowledge that it's based on real events...these characters were real people (during the credits, they have several cast members singing along to a song that got sung during the movie, arm in arm with the real person they were portraying). Even if it was pure fiction, it would be a pretty awesome feel-good movie...the fact that it's got basis in reality just enhances the effect.
