ROWithout Limits eke

Starring Billy Crudup, Donald Sutherland
and Monica Potter. Now playing at Caprice
Park Royal South.

Without Limits is a tough sell. The film is
based on the short lite and remarkable career of
Steve Prefontaine, US. distance runner who held
records in everything from 2,000 to 10,000
metres.

Problem is, no one under 30 has heard of him.
And save for Donald Sutherland as Prefontaine’s
coach, there are no huge names to draw in the
crowds,

The biggest luminaries are behind the scenes. The pro-
ducer is Tom Cruise and the director is Robert Towne, of
Chinatown fame. Maybe that’s why the film languished in
limbo for a year and a half.

Or maybe it’s the anticlimactic ending. Without giving
too much away, let’s just say that this isn’t one of those feel-
good endings Hollywood is so fond of.

And the movie shouldn’t be confused with Prefontaine,
now on video store shelves after a fess-than-ilustrious run at
the box office two years ago.

But Withore Limits is detinitely worth seeing.

Firm Reviews

The relationship between Pretontaine (Lavercitg
the Abbotts’ Billy Crudup) and his coach more
than compensates for breaks in race action.
Sutherland delivers a tine pertormance as the rigid
coach trying to rein in his star athlete,

He's at wits with, and in awe of, his frontrunner.
“Pre” rans full our and ahead of the pack. To
give any less than his best would be deceptive and
spoil the “work of are” that is the race.

Like most great coaches Bill Bowerman is as ego-
tistical as his track phenom, but Sutherland is
both mentor and groupie and saves the role from
being monochromatic. By the way, Bowerman
has a litle pet project on the side: shoes with
wattle-iron soles that he calls NIKEs.

Billy Crudup captures all the intensity and bottomless
drive of an Olympian, and Monica Potter (Cou Air) is good
as the only woman who leads Pre on a chase for her aftec-
tions.

Steve Prefontaine suggested that the purpose of running
was to test the limits of the human heart. Ina time when
athletes in all sports seem to be on strike more often than
they are on the field, when sports stars bite the cars off their
opponents and spit on their umpires, Steve Prefontaine is a
hero indeed.
