Hidalgo
“Unbridled. Unbroken. Unbeaten.”
Director
Joe Johnston
Screenplay
John Fusco
Joe Johnston directed this old-fashioned adventure starring Viggo Mortensen as real-life distance rider Frank Hopkins, a weary former Pony Express courier who takes his mustang Hidalgo to compete in a grueling survival race across the Arabian desert. Sweeping and earnest, it plays fast and loose with its supposedly true history. Reviews were mixed and its factual claims disputed, but it offers handsome scenery, likable stars and the sturdy pleasures of a horse-and-underdog crowd-pleaser.
