Review of The Flying Scotsman (2006) by Roxanne R — 22 Apr 2010
Very nice storyline...the heart of a relentless champion who refuses to give up and the story of a legend! Johnny Lee Miller offers a very strong and solid performance in this inspiring movie based on the remarkable true story of world champion cyclist Graeme Obree.
What is so amazing about it? Well despite modest beginnings and a lifelong battle with bipolar disorder, this tenacious and resourceful competitor pedaled his way into sports history. In 1993 Obree designed and built a bicycle from scrap metal and washing machine parts.
Pitted against top competitors in a high-profile race, he broke the world's record. This man's tale of passion and triumph will definitely leave you cheering and indeed it was a good one! Recommended.
