About

Jesse Owens's quest to become the greatest track and field athlete in history launches him onto the world stage of the 1936 Olympics, where he faces off against Adolf Hitler's vision of Aryan supremacy.
"The script and direction of 'Race' are both workmanlike and serve the film well, helping us to see Owens and Snyder as ordinary people with extraordinary gifts."--Washington Post.
"At a time when the Oscars and movies, in general, struggle with finding racial balance, two guys of different skin colors coming together for some sports-movie magic is a fitting and truly welcoming lapping of the competition."--USA Today.
"It's amazing, the power of drama to make audiences worry about an outcome that is part of the historical record, but 'Race' accomplishes just that."--San Francisco Chronicle.
