Movie review: “The Boys in the Boat” sinks, but it should have been a winner

Published Fri, 22 Nov 2024 07:04:44 GMT

Be warned: “The Boys in the Boat” is no “Chariots of Fire.”Sorry, George.The film, which is being released on Christmas Day, had all of the elements for a memorable movie: a big-name director (George Clooney); a handsome young leading man (Callum Turner); and a story filled with loads of inherent drama, like the Great Depression, the Olympics, Nazis, and a sweet romance.Callum Turner stars as Joe Rantz in “The Boys in the Boat.” (Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Pictures Inc.)There is SO much there. It’s based on a 2013 non-fiction book of the same name and subtitled “Nine Americans and Their Epic Quest for Gold at the 1936 Berlin Olympics,” by Daniel James Brown. In it, the 1936 University of Washington junior varsity eight-oar crew team is an underdog that defeats big-name, well-funded schools for the right to represent its country in Germany on the brink of World War II.And you can guess how those games turned out.Seems like a can’t-...

John Chivington, routed the Confederates and sent them back to Texas.  The engagement was known as “the Gettysburg of the West.”After distinguishing himself in that battle, Chivington, of course, went on to become the despised commanding officer at the Sand Creek Massacre. Colorado’s volunteers went on to fight the Rebels in Kansas and Missouri and confront Quantrill’s Raiders.The territory’s role in the War Between the States is summarized in “Colorado in the Civil War.”  Using early photographs, many of them rare, autho...
