The 2016 Rio Summer Olympic Games have ended for days. This
Olympics have shown us inspirational GIFs, sport legends like Michael Phelps
and Usain Bolt, Qin Kai and He Zi’s marriage proposal romance, etc. With the
end of Rio Olympics, these have all become beautiful moments. If you've got a
hunger for more stories of sporting glory, the below 10 Olympics movies and
documentary stories might be helpful.
Chariots of Fire (Narrative, 1981):
A classic by any
measure, Chariots of Fire is the story of two British track athletes competing
in the 1924 Olympics. Eric Liddell is a Scottish Christian running for God and
country, and Harold Abrahams is an English Jew bent on overcoming the prejudice
leveled against him. It won four Academy Awards, including Best Picture and
Best Original Screenplay. Watch it, then go to the nearest beach or park or
quiet side street and do your own slow-motion run to the movie’s iconic theme
song.
