"Pros: The cinematography. Ben Cross and Ian Charleson’s film performances. The music score by Vangelis. The running sequences. It’s arguably one of the best sports films, ever. It’s a very moving, and motivating movie."
"Rated: PG Why it’s rated: Intensity of competition, and mild profanity"
"Also nominated Best Director Best Score Best Original Screenplay Best Actor Best Supporting Actor "
