The handheld cams, skier povs, and score were so killer. And I must own this whole winter wardrobe. Sick poster too. Redford always a legend.

Was in the Winter Olympic spirit and this has been sitting on my shelf for the past few months. Redford and Hackman’s roles were kind of built specifically for them. The camerawork for all the Skiing stuff too man, crazy. We’ve lost the art of the freeze frame to end a film.

Watching early sports movies is so interesting, the just hadn’t had it figured out yet. All the pieces are there it’s just not fleshed all the way out. RIP Bob though maybe the most handsome man ever.
