re: Watched "Foxcatcher" last night.

The more I look up the true stories behind movies, the less I've come to expect from Hollywood. But in all relativity they weren't that far off. They for sure condensed the timeline, and though Dupont's weirdo advances were documented, Mark strongly denied the scenes of late night wrasslin, hair cutting and such.
That said, the Shultz family was around during filming (those were Dave's glasses Ruffalo was wearing) and watching the 30/30 last night, they nailed some of the visual aspects.
I do agree on the overdone monkey-walk, but the pacing didn't bother me and I thought it had one of the best scores of the year. I also thought Mark's hotel freakout was an extremely powerful scene. He really busted his head during the shot.
I'd recommend watching both versions.

Well the "BASED" on a true story is there in writing for a reason.. even the MMA storyline part at the end was like 98% inaccurate (Mark did fight in the UFC once, loved it, but BYU where he was coaching asked him to stop).. Kurt Angle was on set too; I believe he was at Foxcatcher a few months before the shooting..
