The FoxCatcher movie, a cocktail of emotions, brotherhood, sportsmanship jealousy, lies, drugs and murder.

wrestler Mark Schult

 It's rated R for drugs and language. It is based on a true story of two brothers who are Olympic champion wrestlers in the 1980s. When they meet their billionaire obsessed/freaky coach their life takes a turn. What turn do you think envy, money, and cocaine could bring into their life?  Watch this intensive story. The ending was sad, however I liked it the lessons that i learned- the bad results that can only come out when you have a cocktail of drugs and obsessive power.

Why did Mark Schultz decide to go to Foxcatcher?The real Mark Schultz says that when he wrestled there was little money in the sport. Even those at the top often struggled financially, as there was little or no help from USA Wrestling. "That's why I went to Foxcatcher," says Mark. John du Pont was actually paying people to wrestle (No Holds Barred with Eddie Goldman). Prior to accepting John du Pont's invitation, Mark had been fired from his assistant coaching position at Stanford. He went to Foxcatcher Farm in 1986 and left in 1988, no longer able to take the stifling atmosphere created by the "entitled egomaniac" John du Pont (NY Post).

Unlike the movie, Mark doesn't credit du Pont as being his savior, just a strange man offering him a coaching job. He says that du Pont wanted him to be his assistant coach at Villanova University. "I didn't move to Pennsylvania to wrestle for Foxcatcher," says Mark. "I took an assistant coaching job at Villanova" (Mark Schultz Facebook Page). The movie instead finds Mark going to Foxcatcher after du Pont convinces him to be part of his plan for wrestling domination. In real life, du Pont had first contacted Mark's brother Dave, who in turn recommended Mark.
