Tamthilia hii inamfuata mwanariadha shupavu wa Marekani wa kuteleza thelujini anayetafuta utukufu wa Olimpiki huko Ulaya, mara nyingi akigombana na timu yake. Inachunguza mada za azma na ubinafsi huku kukiwa na michezo ya ushindani. Ingawa inavutia kwa macho, filamu hii inachunguza changamoto za kutafuta mafanikio ya kibinafsi.

Gene Hackman co-stars as the coach who tries to temper Chappellet's narcissistic and reckless drive for glory.…

RecommendedTrusted family reviewers

If ANY film I have ever seen comes the closest to taking a sophisticated look at what most of the world would consider to be the spoiled-rotten, prima donna, mega-talented amateur athlete (I would add 'American', but I believe they would be like Redford's characterization even if they weren't), Michael Ritchie nails it.
