Personal Best

"Chariots of Fire" meets "Brokeback Mountain." A very sweaty, physical depiction of athletes training for the 1980 Olympics, which the US boycotted so the finale is not what we'd expect. Two what-whats to Mariel Hemingway for getting in shape and letting the camera film every piece of her in slow motion while running and exercising. Not many people would let that happen, and even fewer could have it look good.
