The 2010 Walt Disney film “Secretariat” will be screened Thursday, April 7, at 7 p.m. in the Community Room at the Coeur d’Alene Public Library, 702 E. Front Ave. This family movie is offered as part of “Fabulous Flix @ the Library” and is sponsored by the Coeur d’Alene Public Library Foundation.
“Secretariat” shares the true story of housewife and mother Penny Chenery who agrees to take over her ailing father’s Virginia-based Meadow Stables, despite her lack of horse-racing knowledge. With the help of veteran trainer Lucien Laurin, Chenery manages to navigate the male-dominated business, ultimately fostering the first Triple Crown winner in 25 years and what may be one of the greatest racehorses of all time. Starring Diane Lane, John Malkovich, And Amanda Michalka, the film was directed by Randall Wallace. It’s rated PG and runs 123 minutes.
