Watched Chariots of Fire with my 11 yr old son tonight. Its the first time I had watched it since going to the movies 25 years ago to watch it as a 10 year old boy myself. Man what a powerful movie, what a powerful message, I still have goose bumps, it's what every boy desires, to be a moral champion coming from behind.
After the movie I dowloaded the famous film clip of Jack Lovelock winning the first gold medal for New Zealand ever at the Berlin Olympics in the Mile race in front of Adolf Hitler. Abrahams (of Chariots of Fire fame) commentated the race, cheering on Lovelock who went to University with him, with the words 'Go Jack Go Jack Go, He's done it! Watch it for your self and hear Abrahams commentate it here
