Seabiscuit versus International Velvet
Seabiscuit (2003)
True story of the undersized Depression-era racehorse whose victories lifted not only the spirits of the team behind it but also those of their nation.
International Velvet (1978)
Velvet’s orphaned niece, Sarah, follows her dream of Olympic glory with her horse Arizona Pie.
Last time for round 1…vote!
Sorry, INternational Velvet, but you lose because of the plane scene. #scarredforlife.

A bunch of the eventing scenes for International Velvet were filmed at Ledyard International trials when I was a Pony Clubber and involved in volunteering. I so wanted to meet and befriend the star, and we could ride together, and she'd admire my pony… daydreams.
