Beautiful film

Rating: Null/10 (7 June 2001)

I have to admit it's a while since I watched this film. I've seen it twice so far, and both times I enjoyed watching it immensely, but perhaps for different reasons than many other people.
The reason this film does it for me is because Harold Abrahams was in fact my great uncle (Sybil was my grandfather's sister). The soundtrack is very powerful, and some of the scenery (such as Arthur's Seat in Edinburgh) is beautiful.
The film captivates me from the beginning (the crowd of men running along the beach) to the end.
