Then I told the usher I was bummed that the only movie I wanted to see, Secretariat, wasn't playing there. He said that it was. It turned out that on the electronic signs, the name had been truncated to "Secret." Lucky for me the show was just starting and the theater it was in wasn't crowded, so I grabbed a soda and some popcorn and settled in.
It was a sweet movie. I liked the main character, a housewife who suddenly finds herself running the family horse business, and I liked the trash-talk subplot between the main character and one of the other horse owners. There's some nice horse scenes, though not as many as I had expected. If you like nice movies where you know the ending before the movie starts, this is a good one to see. But there's nothing that requires a large screen, it will be fine to watch on DVD, so don't rush to the movie theater if you don't want to.
