Foxcatcher

Oscar-caliber performances highlight this poignant, cerebral, unevenly paced, factually based, star-dotted (Vanessa Redgrave, Sienna Miller, Anthony Michael Hall, and Brett Rice), 130-minute film in which two wrestling brothers, Mark Schultz (Channing Tatum) and David Schultz (Mark Ruffalo), who each won Olympic Gold in 1984, are sucked into the world of egotistical, wrestling-obsessed billionaire John E. du Dupont (Steve Carrel) in 1987 in Pennsylvania when he decides to sponsor and coach a U.S. team of wrestlers for the 1988 Olympic Games in Seoul, Korea.
