“Hidalgo,” directed by Joe Johnston, follows the story of Frank T. Hopkins, a long-distance horse rider, and his mustang, Hidalgo, as they embark on a grueling 3,000-mile race across the Arabian Desert known as the Ocean of Fire. Set in the late 19th century, the film explores themes of endurance, cultural clash, and the bond between man and horse amidst a backdrop of breathtaking landscapes and intense competition.
