Chariots of Fire

Winner of four Oscars—including Best Picture—this inspiring 1981 drama focuses on two 1924 British Olympic athletes, a Jew and a Christian, who approach their sport in very different ways. The New York Times called Chariots of Fire an “unashamedly rousing, invigorating, but very clear-eyed evocation of values of the old-fashioned sort that are today more easily satirized than celebrated…. It’s an exceptional film, about some exceptional people.” And you’ll never forget its stirring score.

This film is part of the Senior Afternoon Cinema series.
