The documentary, impressively directed by Jon Greenhalgh, is named after the wrestling team that du Pont established on his family's Pennsylvania estate, Liseter Hall Farm. The name was changed to Foxcatcher Farm, a tribute to the family's noted racing stable, after du Pont's mother passed away.

Team Foxcatcher is a 2016 documentary film directed by Jon Greenhalgh telling the story of billionaire John du Pont's involvement in the shaping of the US Olympic Wrestling Team by building expensive training facilities on his home property, called 'Foxcatcher'.

Foxcatcher Foxcatcher is described as an "electrifying thriller", but let's not get ahead of ourselves. Based on the true events of John du Pont forming a wrestling team with the Schultz brothers for the 1988 Olympic Games.

Parents need to know that Foxcatcher is a compelling but disturbing psychological crime drama based on real-life events. There's some brief non-sexual nudity during a wrestling weigh-in, and characters are shown abusing drugs (mostly cocaine, but characters also drink and smoke weed). Guns are brandished…

Glory. Most of your athletes. Actually do it instinctively. To get right let's score of their opponent. They.

Much of the film is set on the vast du Pont family estate, which stood in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania, until it was torn down in 2013. The land where the estate stood is now part of the Liseter housing development.

An 1899 mansion, Wilpen Hall, in the wealthy Pittsburgh suburb of Sewickley Heights, Pennsylvania, served as Foxcatcher's stand-in for the interior filming location for du Pont's Philadelphia-area estate.
