Chariots of Fire: Eric Liddell the Muscular Christian

Man, times have changed. Funny to see all us white guys running in a race. These shorts sprints are run by blacks now.

@grappleguy77 I was wondering the same thing.. that theres not a single black man in that race in the video..lol

Athletes were old in the 70's. In this current time athletes are a their prime competing time at the age of 16

@osummuso, all he's saying is that the movie inherently has religious overtones. In the movie, it is made clear that Liddell is running for God.

What a wonderfully inspiring Christian message. Maybe you guys need to leave your egos aside

why should sports be contamined by such superstition?

contaminated? No, it is strengthened and enriched by such men as Liddell and Abrahams

I bet the producers never dreamed the theme song to this movie would be the "ULTIMATE RUNNING IN SLOW MOTION MUSIC"!

This theme is undoubtedly the most inspirational music to make people spontaneously start running in slow motion!

Since there seems to be some debate about what this movie is about why dont we go outside ourselves and find a good old quote.

"Chariots of Fire is a 1981 British film loosely based on historical events surrounding the British athletic team before and during the 1924 Summer Olympics in Paris. The story follows Harold Abrahams, a Jew out to overcome prejudice, and Eric Liddell, a devout missionary running for the glory of God."
