Continuity mistake: Just before the Breeders Cup the horse is upset and Kurt Russell puts his hands on either side of her face to see what she is "thinking". First his fingers are practically in her eyeball and when the shot changes his hand is back by her jaw. This happens to quickly to be a natural movement.

Dreamer is a family drama based upon a true tale where a man who was a celebrated racehorse trainer regains his confidence and desire thanks to the boundless love and dedication his daughter has for a badly-injured horse that seems destined to fail. Together with a few friends and the trainer's estranged father, the horse not only recovers but becomes a possible contender for the coveted Breeder's Cup, much to the dismay of one of the wealthy competing sponsors and their villainous lackey, who tries to buy the horse and then cause an incident to re-injure the filly before the race commences. Family movies being family movies, there's not much insofar as surprises here-it's meant to be uplifting and affirming, with Kurt Russell playing the dispirited father who must mend bridges with his dad and a young Dakota Fanning provides the heartbreaking waif who refuses to give up on her beloved "Sonya." Cute, well-meaning and mostly tame.
Cale Crane: I like him.
Ben Crane: Her... I like her too.
