Even though it's over 40 years ago (?!) I remember this episode of Clapper Board very well, particularly where Chris Kelly was talking about how the film set out to portray as authentic a picture as possible of what the 1924 Olympic Games would actually have looked like. Great memories! I believe The Oscars where Chariots of Fire won had already happened when this episode aired, so that wouldn't have been mentioned in the episode. I do know I hadn't watched the movie before seeing this episode, so I can't for the life of me remember when I actually saw it for the first time. What I do know is that over the 40 years since I've seen it many times, and it always gives me the same thrill when I hear the music!
