Chariots Of Fire (U)

Harold Abrahams is accepted to Cambridge University where he becomes the first man to complete the infamous Trinity Great Court Run. Weathering antisemitism from the masters, Abrahams pursues his love of athletics, which is challenged by Scottish runner Eric Liddell, the son of missionaries, who races in the name of God. In their first head-to-head meeting, Liddell beats Abrahams, who subsequently accepts an offer from professional trainer Mussabini to refine his technique and gain up to half a second on his rivals.
