Foxcatcher movie plot

2021-11-29 08:01
Based on real events, "Fox Hunter" tells a tragic story: John DuPont, the heir of DuPont Group, wants Olympic gold medalist Mark Schultz to help DuPont Real Estate organize a team to participate in the 1988 Seoul Olympics. Mark seized this opportunity and hoped to get out of the shadow of his respected brother Dave.
Under the aura of DuPont Group, Mark increasingly relied on his "beneficiary." At first everything went well, but DuPont's fickle temperament and wrong guidance gradually began to affect Mark's training. Soon, DuPont's weirdness and cruelty weakened Mark's shaky self-esteem. At the same time, DuPont also shifted his interest to Dave. Under his separation, the three finally walked towards the abyss of tragedy. Mark finally left DuPont, who he once considered to be a "mentor" and "father". And one winter eight years later, DuPont shot Dave in front of his wife and DuPont bodyguards. Three bullets ended the life of the former Olympic and world champion.
DuPont was arrested and later convicted of third-degree murder and died in prison. He was 72 years old.

    It feels like Bennett Miller is a bit of a yin and yang with Wes Anderson.

    It's not hard to watch, but I'm very dissatisfied with the overly inflated ambition of this film, which is too open to portray three people, but in addition to throwing out three "idiot athletes", "family men" and "rich and self-willed" There is no depth beyond Stereotype. Brother issue Mommy issue is all over the place. Plus, the first half hour of American patriotism is too nauseating.
