Fictionalized treatment of the incredible story of Steve Prefontaine...the champion American runner.
The role of a lifetime for Crudup who looks and runs like an athlete...while skillfully acting the self-confidant boor who manages to be likable. Excellent racing scenes were genuinely thrilling. The treatment of the murders at Munich 1972 was simple-minded but that wasn't important.
As good a biopic of an athlete as it gets.
