Randall Wallace’s Secretariat is a prime example of storytelling at its best – this amazing story of the eponymous horse combines heart, thrills and high action drama, and manages to keep us on the edge of our seats, even when we know the outcome!
Sandra Bullock gives a rich and layered Golden Globe and Oscar-winning performance in John Lee Hancock's The Blind Side, based on the true story of Michael Oher, a homeless teen with a troubled past who was taken in by the Tuohy family and later went on to become a first round NFL draft pick.
Director Bill Paxton pulls out all the stops in this period golf drama, based on the true story of the 1913 U.S. Open, a battle between 20-year old amateur Francis Ouimet and 1900 U.S. Open Champion, Englishman Harry Vardon. This is a wonderful film for golf enthusiasts, but you don't have to love golf to love the film.
The Game Plan is formula Disney all the way. But hey, why not? It's a formula for success!
Don't let the title fool you -- the only part of writer/director John Gatin's film inspired by a true story is the story of the horse. Everything about the characters is pure fiction -- but it is fiction at its best. Quite an accomplishment for first-time director Gatin.
