HIDALGO Released: March 5, 2004 Set in 1890, this is the story of a Pony Express courier (Viggo Mortensen) who travels to Arabia to compete with his horse, Hidalgo, in a dangerous race for a massive contest prize, in an adventure that sends the pair around the world. This was a fun movie to watch and Mortensen is emerging as a real A list star. As far as horse movies go, I give "Seabisquit" a win by a nose. Still very entertaining though! 136 Minutes Touchstone/Buena Vista |
