The Boys in the Boat

George Clooney’s latest directorial project is “The Boys in the Boat”, the story of the University of Washington’s Junior Varsity crew team and their trip to the 1936 Olympics in Munich. It’s a true under dog story with compelling characters, lots of action and the race sequences will keep you on the edge of your seat. Joel Edgerton is the only actor you may recognize. Most of the others are relatively new. This film is a real crowd pleaser, somewhat reminiscent of “Chariots of Fire”. It’s just an enjoyable movie. Don’t miss it.
