I am looking movies with swimming in it. just to get a little bit inspiration to haul my ass to the pol i guess. Now watching “Pride” on the cable and it is a good movie actually.
Dare I say…
Swimfan.
Unfiltered, I’ve only heard of it, haven’t seen it though.
Pride is a good one.
How about “swimming upstream” ? have you seen that???
not a movie - but read “Gold in the Water” by PH Mullen. That will get your little fishie tail into the pool.
looks like he has a beer gut!![]()

I thought swimming upstream was decent as well.
On a Clear Day.

The Blue Lagoon with Brooke Shields or the old Flipper series ![]()

I watched it last night. Not bad.
What would be cool is if they did a “What It Takes” type of movie about Mark Warkentin and the other Olympic hopefuls as they train and race in the 2008 Beijing Open Water Swimming 10K
.
Heart: The Marilyn Bell Story was ok.
Swimming Upstream
The true story of Tony Fingleton, a young man from a troubled family who found the inner strength to become a champion. Always overshadowed in his father’s eyes by his brothers, it is only when Tony displays an extraordinary swimming talent that he feels he has a shot at winning his father’s heart.
There was an old Burt Lancaster movie called The Swimmer.
Styrrell
I saw one a few years ago… I can’t remember the name, but it was about two Australian brothers vying for their father’s attantion and competeing against each other eventually competing for a spot to go to the Olympics… I guess that is not very helpful… it was good though… ![]()
