Movie Review: The Life & Times of Secretariat,An American Racing Legend DVD
Summary: 5 Stars
Great dvd. Really captured Secretariat's rise to icon status. Great to relive triple crown races and how he not only won triple crown but did with such great determination. He helped revive horse racing.Movie Review: Disappointing.....
Summary: 2 Stars
I was eager to see this documentary about Secretariat and unfortunately, this DVD doesn't do justice to this great horse. The sound quality is very inconsistent, sometimes it's very loud and other times you can hardly hear the announcer. I was told that there would be subtitles on this film. It is hard to understand the jockey, trainer and groom and there are NO subtitles to help you figure out what they are mumbling. One bright spot is the owner's interview: You CAN understand her and also the narrator. The films of the races are of poor quality. You don't learn anything about Secretariat's life off of the race track. The PBS documentary, "American Experience" for Seabiscuit was much, much better than this effort for Secretariat. I wouldn't recommend spending $50 on this product.
