Synopsis

Foxcatcher (2014) is Bennett Miller's chilling drama you can watch online on iFILM. Steve Carell trades comedy for a hollow-eyed millionaire, and the transformation is genuinely unsettling.

Olympic wrestler Mark Schultz (Channing Tatum) lives in the shadow of his older brother Dave (Mark Ruffalo), scraping by on small paychecks. Then chemical heir John du Pont invites him onto a sprawling estate to train for Seoul 1988 under the Foxcatcher banner. At first it feels like everything Mark wanted. But behind the money and the praise sits a man who craves control over an athlete more than any medal.

The film is built around what happened on du Pont's farm a few years later, and Miller shoots it with long silences and almost no score. Sienna Miller and Vanessa Redgrave appear in support. Miller took the best director prize at Cannes for the work. Stream Foxcatcher (2014) online on iFILM.
