a olimpic triumph

Rating: 10/10 (23 January 2002)

In a year that the favorite movies for the oscars were The Raiders of the Lost Ark and Reds, the surprise has happened and the winner was Chariots of Fire. An excellent combination between the story, the screenplay, the photography and the actors. Collin Welland as maked from a simple story of olympic champions a tribute to all olimpic winners and a tribute to all whom fight in live. All in the film is perfect starting by the fantastic score by Vangelis.One of the most famous of all times. It seems that with only the music we can remembering all scenes from the movie. Also the actors are all very good and the reconstitution is perfect. In the end we see that the great surprise of the 81 oscars is not very great and we must considerer this movie one of best movies of all times.
