- Who'll love it
- Aimed squarely at anyone who loves an underdog and people who love a true story told well. The sport matters, but the people playing it matter more. Very British, in all the best ways.
- The mood
- Eye-opening.
- The pace
- Moves through the story clearly, at 8 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
- What might put you off
- It's in French, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Made in 1908: an older pace and style.
- Skip it if you want made-up drama tonight.
During the recent Olympic games, held in the city of Loudon. Pathe was granted sole rights to take pictures for the cinematograph of the national games, and the success with which they met in obtaining a clear view of the principal events can easily be judged by those who are fortunate enough to see this film. The first picture shows the grand stand, crowded to its capacity with thousands of enthusiastic fans. In the royal box is the King and Queen, who appear to take a lively interest in the different events. It is an inspiring scene to see the parade of athletes at the opening of the games as each country represented marches by the reviewing stand flying their national colors and saluting their majesties.
