Winner of 4 Academy Awards including Best Picture, Best Screenplay, Best Score & Best Costume, Directed by Hugh Hudson, Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment is proud to announce Chariots Of Fire - 30th Anniversary Edition is available for the first time on Blu-ray from the 16th July 2012.
This new Blu-ray release has 6 new special featurettes entitled Reliving the Sprint, Filming the Opening Shot, Composer's isolated score, Birth of the Modern Games, Journey to the Gold and David Puttnam a Cinematic Champion which were not available on any previous UK DVD release
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.
Harold hires trainer Sam Mussabini (Ian Holm) to further his dreams of winning the gold. 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.
