The Olympics and the Movies view detail comment email this

This 2000 article discusses three memorable documentaries about the Olympics: Kon Ichikawa's 1964 "Tokyo Olympiad"; Leni Riefenstahl's "Olympia," about the 1936 Berlin Olympics; and "Visions of Eight," about the 1972 Munich Olympics. Also briefly discusses "Chariots of Fire," the "nostalgia-charged costume drama centered on the Paris Olympics of 1924." From Salon.com (which may require watching an ad).
