Seabiscuit: Strap In For Errors

The 2003 movie Seabiscuit is based on the true story of the racing horse by the same name and the legacy it left behind. Tobey Maquire was lauded for his portrayal of Red Pollard and the movie did well with both critics and viewers. As heartwarming as the film may be, however, it is not without its faults. Seabiscuit takes place around the time of The Great Depression. However, the strapped helmets that the jockeys wear in the film did not exist at that time. To be fair, though–better safe than sorry, right?
