Log in to save

In the class-obsessed and religiously divided UK of the early 1920s, two determined young runners train for the 1924 Paris Olympics. Eric Liddell, a devout Christian born to Scottish missionaries in China, sees running as part of his worship of God's glory and refuses to train or compete on the Sabbath. Harold Abrahams overcomes anti-Semitism and class bias, but neglects his beloved sweetheart in his single-minded quest.

THE VERDICT

Synthesized from published reviews

Hugh Hudson's Oscar-winning historical drama tells the uplifting story of two British runners competing in the 1924 Paris Olympics for faith, pride, and personal conviction. Backed by Vangelis's iconic synthesizer score and beautiful period detail, the film captures the noble philosophy of amateur athletics. It endures as a celebrated, elegant achievement in sports storytelling.
