Producer David Wolper brought together eight filmmakers from various countries, each of whom focused on a different event or theme. They include Arthur Penn on the pile vault, Kon Ichikawa on the 100 metres, Milos Forman on the decathlon, Mai Zetterling on the weightlifters, Michael Pfleghar on female athletes, and Claude Lelouch on “The Losers”.
The result is a thoughtful and kaleidoscopic view of the Games in Munich, an occasion marked by a terrorist attack that left eleven Israeli athletes and coaches dead. John Schlesinger’s segment (on “The Marathon”) touches on this outrage.
