About this product

Product Information

Director Hugh Hudson's absorbing drama, based on a true story, deals with the personal struggles faced by two very different long-distance runners competing for Britain in the 1924 Paris Olympic Games. Eric Liddell (Ian Charleson) is a devout Christian who sees victory as a testament to the glory of God, while the other, Harold Abrahams (Ben Cross), is a Jewish Cambridge student who sees victory as a challenge to anti-Semitism and his ongoing struggle for acceptance by Britain's elite. Eric, a hometown Scottish hero to the people, gives rousing sermons after victory and works at a local missionary. Harold runs with a zealous commitment, upsetting Cambridge's educational upper crust (played with enjoyable wit and candor by Sir John Gielgud and Lindsay Anderson) while enjoying social life with his university chums and his beautiful showgirl girlfriend (Alice Krige). But when faced with such a competent challenger, Harold hires trainer Sam Mussabini (Ian Holm) to further his dreams of winning the gold. Ultimately, the two runners meet in Paris to run for British victory in a rousing finale. Featuring an unforgettable soundtrack by Vangelis, this Academy Award-winning film is an inspirational story of athletic excellence and spiritual awakening that captures the zeal of post-WWI Britain and the glory of the Olympics.

  • The very best Oscar winner for Best Picture!

    Of every movie that has won the coveted Academy Award for Best Picture of the Year, there are only a few of these films that I hold in high esteem. However, the one title of this lot that I consider to be the very best one of them all is 1981's "Chariots Of Fire". While the other 4 nominees were all great productions, this film stands out as a spectacular film achievement. Not only does it rank as my favorite winner for Best Picture; it also ranks as my second favorite movie of all time, right behind the 2 Spielberg-directed motion pictures "Schindler's List" and "Saving Private Ryan". The story centers around the 1924 Olympics in Paris. 2 young men from the United Kingdom are competing for different reasons. Harold Abrahams (played by Ben Cross) is a British man of Jewish ancestry who ...

  • Review of Chariots of Fire

    I have always heard about this movie and decided to purchase the VHS version. I liked the scenery of this movie, the time period of the 1920's is fascinating. The length of the movie was perfect and the actors really bring the characters to life. I do wish some of the minoe characters had more development, The movie soundtrack is wonderful and inspiring. With all the bang them and car crash movies of today this cinematic masterpiece passes the test of time.

  • A Classic

    I have a yearly tradition of watching this every year in December. It's a inspirational true story of a man pursuing his dreams and convictions. He felt Gods presence when he ran and when he lived the life he felt called to do. I watch this to re-ignite my own personal dreams and convictions each year.

  • Clean movie for a change!!

    It is a wonderful movie depicting how vain life's success really are if they aren't done for the right reasons, to please God.

  • Eric Liddell : A man for God

    THis movie demonstrated one man's dedication to God. He kept diligence to never stray from God's plan for him.
