This film is the autobiography of the British flying man Li Airui. It tells about his running career when he won the Olympic championship. The film has double protagonists and a master runner from Cambridge. It broke the 700-year school record of Cambridge. The two competed against each other. But the two sides went to the game with different attitudes. This film won 4 Olympic awards in total, and the theme song has become the usual repertoire of the Olympics. Later, after Li Erui won the championship, he returned to Tianjin to continue his preaching. When the Japanese invaded China, he was imprisoned in a concentration camp. Churchill was the first to save him and exchange terms with the Japanese, but Li Erui refused. In 1945, he was the first to save him. Died in a Japanese concentration camp. This movie is full of human brilliance. It not only has religious beliefs, but also reflects on the Olympics and sportsmanship. Why did you participate in the Olympics? Is it for winning or for sportsmanship? It can even be extended to life, why are we fighting? There was a scene in the movie that almost made me cry. When he was participating in the Olympics, he shared with each contestant, blessing others, cheering for others, because he was good at 100 meters, and the preliminaries were Sunday and Sabbath, but he refused. Running on the Sabbath, he changed to 400 meters, which he was not good at, and the spirit of getting into battle easily and trying his best to run made him the Olympic champion. The epitaph after his death read "God, give me a chariot that breathes fire, I will feel your joy while running", which is where the name of the movie comes from.

    The movie's dual mainline mode is too vague, the plot is confusing, and the music is all bullshit except for the beginning and the end. Thirty years ago, it was a blockbuster, but thirty years later, it's a mess. Inspirational is really a bit, but the Olympic Games to put this film on the opening ceremony is really too cola. Suddenly I feel that it still looks good in the Pentium era

    Abraham fought for the honor of the Jews, Liddell fought for the faith. I believe that if the two fought, Liddell would win, faith gave strength, and Abraham had too much on his shoulders. The ending fragment was used for the opening ceremony of the London 2012 Olympic Games.

Chariots of Fire quotes

  • Lord Birkenhead: Liddell, he is your future king, are you refusing to shake his hand? Does your arrogance extend that far?

    Eric Liddell: My arrogance, sir, extends just as far as my conscience demands.

    Lord Birkenhead: Fine, then let's hope that is wise enough to give you room to maneuver.

  • Lord Cadogan: Don't be impertinent, Liddell!

    Eric Liddell: The impertinence lies, sir, with those who seek to influence a man to deny his beliefs!
