5 out of 5 stars Chariots of Fire and Wings on Their Feet    November 30, 2008
Beth of the World of Fiction and Beyond (Phoenix, Arizona)
I never saw Chariots of Fire when it was in the theater in the early 80's, but I became interested in it after I saw some of the sites where it was filmed when I was in Scotland recently.

It's based on the true story of the track team of Great Britain in the 1924 Olympics in Paris. Eric Liddell has become one of my heroes -- standing for what you know is right even in the face of incredible pressure and sacrifice.

It's an amazing film!!


5 out of 5 stars Great Movie    November 18, 2008

5 out of 5 stars My favorite movie    October 9, 2008
K. M. Evert (Chicago)
I first saw this movie at 18 and it has remained my favorite. The themes and messages are timeless - about having integrity and beliefs - and about "running" for all of the right reasons.


5 out of 5 stars An all time classic and inspirational film!    October 1, 2008
S. Hoffsommer
This is one of those films that deserves, in every way, to have earned the Academy's most coveted award. A film I can watch over and over again and continue to be inspired by, I have gone years without having last seen it - having first seen it in the theater during it's initial release - and it is a treat to have the opportunity to see it again here on this special edition DVD.


5 out of 5 stars A must have for your library    October 1, 2008
Sarah Smenyak (Indiana)
A classic sports movie that focuses on two UK runners as they prepare for the Paris Olympics, one is a Jew and one a Christian who holds firm in his conviction that Sunday is the Lords day and he will not run on the Lord's day, even to compete in his event in the Olympic games. I have seen this movies hundreds of times and it was time to upgrade from VHS to DVD. I loved all the interviews and the making of. I was especially impressed with the training these actors did to "become" runners.
