Hi! Just wanted to pass on the name of a movie I watched last night- "Swimming Upstream". It was a good flick based on a true story about a champion backstroker from Australia. It portrayed his life from childhood and his endless pursuit to please his father. It was motivating to see the guy train so hard.
Does anyone know of any other good movies about swimming or swimmers?
Just noticed in a different forum that Canadian TV had a movie in January called "Victor" (Davis). No idea if it will ever show up in the US, but I'd be interested if those people in the frozen tundra thought this would be worth searching for. :canada:
The lead actor, Mark Lutz, besides being a guest actor on one of my favorite series (Angel), wrote the screenplay and was a national-level swimmer before injuries.
