National Velvet / The Story Of Seabiscuit / Black Beauty (B&W)...Triple Feature includes 'National Velvet,' 'The Story Of Seabiscuit' and 'Black Beauty' 'National Velvet' - Mi Taylor was a young wanderer and opportunist whose father had given him 'all the roads in the Kingdom' to travel. One of the roads, and a notation in his father's journal, leads him to the quiet English country-side home of the Brown family. The youngest daughter, Velvet, has a passion for horses and when she wins the spirited steed Pie in a town lottery, Mi is encouraged to train the horse for the Grand National - England's greatest racing event. 'The Story Of Sea Biscuit' - Mickey Rooney co-stars in this all-time thoroughbred of a family-film winner. Real-life racing footage of the legendary 'The Biscuit' adds to the drama of 'The Story Of Seabiscuit.' 'Black Beauty' - Anna Sewell's novel 'Black Beauty' has been one of the world's most beloved animal stories since its 1877 publication. The story is told by its hero, a remarkable black horse with a white 'star' on his forehead, whose joyous and heartbreaking life takes him from idyllic country life to London's cobblestoned streets. Written and directed by Caroline Thompson (1993's 'The Secret Garden'), this is the most faithful of the book's several filmings. You'll cherish rebellious filly Ginger, mischievous pony Merrylegs and gallant Beauty, whose generous heart guides him under caretakers both kindly and harsh, from Farmer Grey (Sean Bean) and young groom Joe Green (Andrew Knott) to sweet-natured cabbie Jerry Barker (David Thewlis)....
