Chariots Of Fire is a cinematic classic directed by Hugh Hudson. The movie stars Ben Cross, Ian Charleson and Nicholas Farrell. Hugh Hudson’s motion picture received international acclaim and recounts the true story of two British sprinters who vie for gold medal at the 1924 Paris Olympic Games. The movie won 4 Oscars, Golden Globes, Bafta and Grammy. In the British Film Institute’s list as the Top 100 British films, this movie is ranked 19th. One of the most notable fact is the movie’s instrumental soundtrack by Vangelis.
The story is about two British athletes, one a devout Christian and the other a determined Jew. Eric, who is a devout Scottish missionary, wants to win gold as it would please God. Harold wants to prove that the Jews are in no way inferior and wants to win the race to assert his supremacy. A warm up 100m race takes place and Eric outruns Harold. Harold utilises the services of a professional trainer to improve his performance. Eric’s run is slotted for the Sunday and Eric refuses to run on Sabbath. His University friend swaps races and Eric takes part in the 400m race on Thursday. What happens to both the athletes is told in the rest of the story. The movie brings out the humane side and the sportsmanship displayed by the athletes which is in stark contrast to the uncompromising competitiveness in today’s sporting events.
Chariots Of Fire (1981) was released by 20th Century Fox. The movie is available in DVD format with a single disc and carries a U rating. The English language movie has English and Korean subtitles with a runtime of 124 minutes.
