Based on true events, Foxcatcher tells the dark and fascinating story of
the unlikely and ultimately tragic relationship between an eccentric
multi-millionaire and two champion wrestlers. When Olympic Gold Medal
winning wrestler Mark Schultz (Channing Tatum) is invited by wealthy
heir John du Pont (Steve Carell) to move on to the du Pont estate and
help form a team to train for the 1988 Seoul Olympics at his new
state-of-the-art training facility, Schultz jumps at the opportunity,
hoping to focus on his training and finally step out of the shadow of
his revered brother, Dave (Mark Ruffalo). Driven by hidden needs, du
Pont sees backing Schultz's bid for Gold and the chance to "coach" a
world-class wrestling team as an opportunity to gain the elusive respect
of his peers and, more importantly, his disapproving mother (Vanessa
Redgrave). Flattered by the attention and entranced by du Pont's
majestic world, Mark comes to see his benefactor as a father figure and
grows increasingly dependent on him for approval. Though initially
supportive, du Pont's mercurial personality turns and he begins to lure
Mark into an unhealthy lifestyle that threatens to undermine his
training. Soon du Pont's erratic behavior and cruel psychological
game-play begin to erode the athlete's already shaky self-esteem.
Meanwhile du Pont becomes fixated on Dave, who exudes the confidence
both he and Mark lack, knowing that these are things even his money
cannot buy. Fueled by du Pont's increasing paranoia and alienation from
the brothers, the trio is propelled towards a tragedy no one could have
foreseen.
