What is the value of this DVD? Well, I am from New England and live overseas in Muscat, Oman. Yeah...it's not the real thing, but it's the next best thing to being there. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a holiday DVD."

What differentiates this film is that it is really a human story about sports rather than a pure sports story. Based on a true story, it centers on two gifted athletes and their quest to run in the 1924 Olympics." (1981)
