About this event
‘To run or not to run…'
Based on the real-life story of 1924 Olympic athletes Harold Abrahams and Eric Liddell. As well as the pressures on amateur-age elite athletes, 1981's multi-Oscar winner (including best picture) examines the British class system, Abrahams' experience of anti-Semitism and devout Christian Liddell's religious convictions which prevent him competing on Sundays. Directed by Hugh Hudson, screenplay by Colin Welland and famous score by Vangelis.
