Hi guys, I can't believe that it's been 14 years since watching this film. Are you ready?

The Story

Like the Hungarian 2006 film, Children of Glory. This film explores about a real athlete name Harold Abrahams who could not participate in the Olympics because it happens to coincide with the Sabbath as he is Jewish.

The Music

Yes, the legendary music by Vangelis brought me to this wonderful film. It was revived during the London 2012 Olympic Games, so kudos to Vangelis!

Run!

Although I watched it last night, it has a great introduction to Brazilian music. However, it could not beat with the Chinese 8 years ago. In particularly, artistic presentation and all that. But, good job Brazil!

3. Moscow 1980

Despite that some countries did not participate due to the Soviet invasion of...
