Ian Holm is extremely good. But I was not certain through all the years why he could not attend the play, I suppose because he was a professional, you because of his nationality...
Not quite certain...

Follow Ups:
Harold Abrahams was the first British amateur athelete to engage "professional" training, and this was the reason he was not allowed in the Olympic venue. As I recall, his (partial) Arab ancestry is mentioned in the film-he and Abrahams had the shared bond of the outsider.

It clears thing up!
Curiously the one scene was cut from the US version ( the one with the indoor criket game ) at the very begining.
You find it in the " extras ".
A film that gives me, each time I see it a certain kind of strengh.
That is what it is all about.
