As promised the onslaught of 2023 sports films marches, or in this case paddles, on. Hot on the heels of last week’s historical sports drama, comes this one based on a popular book from a few years ago. It’s not about wrestling, like Friday’s flick, but it is set in the past, though nearly fifty years before the Von Erichs. But there is an Olympic connection. This one concerns a larger team of young men defying the odds and overcoming hardship to go for the gold, rather than fame and fortune.

Director George Clooney opens MGM’s behind-the-scenes The Boys in the Boat featurette with a reminder that rowing in the 1920s was one of the most attended sports in the United States. Clooney’s new film tells the true story of an underdog team made up of, as Clooney describes them, “strong, tough kids” who were poor and competed in rowing in order to stay in college.
