What an inspiring film. I just love it. The film was beautifully shot, the pace of the film moved quickly, and the cast was great!
The film follows a 70 year old runner, Jerry, who is hysterical. And what an intense finish for both Daniel and Deena, I don't think I breathed during the last mile of their race. I love that the film showed the wide spectrum of runners from the young to the old, the injured to the elites, it was a well balanced film.
The history on the sport was fascinating. I liked the section on the Boston Marathon and Katherine Switzers story is very inspiring for woman today.
This has been one of the better films I have seen this year!
