"The story of the courage and the triumph of two young runners who represented Britain in the 1924 Olympics, held in Paris. The runners-Harold Abrahams (Ben Cross), a wealthy Jewish boy who is a student at Cambridge, and Eric Liddell (Ian Charleson), a Scottish divinity student-win because they have something to run for. The unbelievably self-possessed Abrahams runs against anti-Semitic snobbery and prejudices, represented here, rather grandly, by Lindsay Anderson and John Gielgud, as a pair of gargoyles-masters at Cambridge. The devout Liddell runs in an ecstatic state, because 'when I run, I feel His pleasure,' and the film is structured so that its big crisis comes when Liddell's qualifying heat is scheduled for a Sunday and he refuses to take part...."
