Storyline:
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 .

Trailer:
Olympic
wrestling champion Mark Schultz (Channing Tatum) speaks at an elementary
school in place of his older brother, Dave Schultz (Mark Ruffalo), who
is also an Olympic gold medl-elwinning wrestler and despite his own achievements fes
overshadowed by Dave. Mark is contacted by philanthropist and wrestling
enthusiast John E. du Pont (Steve Carell), an heir to the E.I. du Pont
family fortune, who arranges to fly Mark to his estate in Pennsylvania
where du Pont had built a private wrestling training facility. Du
Pont then invites Schultz to join his wrestling team, "Team Foxcatcher",
to train for the World championship and be paid a stipend. Mark accepts
the offer with du Pont urging him to enlist his brother Dave as well.
Dave declines for the sake of his wife and two kids who are settled
where they live, however, so Mark moves to Pennsylvania alone.
Mark stays in a homey guest house ("the chalet") and is greeted there later in the night by du Pont, wanting to ensure his guest is comfortable.[N 2] Through training with his new teammates and du Pont's financial support, Mark excels with Foxcatcher, winning Gold at the 1987 World Wrestling Championships. Du Pont gives him much praise and they develop a kind of friendship. Du Pont introduces Mark to cocaine, which he starts to use regularly. During this period, du Pont confides in Mark, whom he now calls a true friend, and tells him how his mother, Jean du Pont (Vanessa Redgrave) paid a boy to act as his friend. Jean du Pont tells her son that she believes that the sport of wrestling is a "low sport" and doesn't like seeing him be low. One day, Mark and his teammates in Foxcatcher take a morning off from training to watch mixed martial arts (MMA) on TV. Angered by this (as well as Mark insisting that his brother will not join Team Foxcatcher), du Pont verbally and physically rebuffs him, saying that he'll enlist Dave by any means necessary.
Dave decides to move with his family to Pennsylvania so he can join Foxcatcher.[N 3] His self-esteem damaged by du Pont, Mark decides to work and train alone, pushing du Pont and even Dave away. As Team Foxcatcher prepares to enter the preliminaries for the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul, du Pont's mother is escorted into du Pont's gym to watch him coach his team. He awkwardly demonstrates basic maneuvers for her and the other wrestlers. Jean leaves in disgust after seeing du Pont give his back to his student.
At the 1988 Olympic Trials in Pensacola, FL, Mark performs poorly, losing his first match. Deeply angered by his failure, Mark violently destroys his room, sobs deeply, and goes on an eating binge. His brother Dave manages to break into his room and is alarmed at his brother's condition. They work feverishly so he can make his weight check; As Mark exercises, Dave prevents du Pont from speaking with Mark. Mark competes well enough to win his match and make the Olympic team. Dave notices that du Pont is absent, learning that he left for Pennsylvania after being told his mother had died.[N 4] After returning to the estate, Mark tells Dave that "you and I both know that I can't stay" at Foxcatcher once the Olympics are over and asks Dave to leave with him as well. A documentary funded by du Pont about his exploits with Team Foxcatcher is made, during which Dave is asked to praise him as coach and mentor. Mark loses his matches in Seoul after which he leaves Team Foxcatcher. While Dave continues to live at du Pont's estate and train with Foxcatcher, as a condition for his remaining he negotiates an arrangement with du Pont for him to continue to support Mark financially.
Du Pont is next seen sitting alone in his mansion's trophy room watching the documentary made on Team Foxcatcher which ends with Mark giving a glowing mpliment to du Pont at a ceremony depicted earlier. Du Pont then calls his bodyguard and drives to Dave Schultz's nearby home where he finds him in the driveway working on his car. As Schultz approaches du Pont's car John rolls down his window as asks him "Do you have a problem with me?" and shoots him at close range three times with a .44 caliber handgun. Dave's wife, Nancy (Sienna Miller), calls 911 and as du Pont drives off she runs outside to her husband who dies in her arms. Du Pont is subsequently arrested and the film ends showing Mark as he later competes in a cage fighting match with the crowd's cheers ringing in his head.
