Though still quite young in 1988, I remember vividly this Michael Edwards or EDDIE, the eagle for this movie. For sure he was not like the other athletes. To me he seemed a bit of a nerd (meaning no disrespect), but he had a hell of a lot of fight in him daring his ski escapades. Though I enjoyed the movie somewhat, I could not get rid of the real life situation unfolding in Calgary, consequently not making this such a compelling movie for me. The Eddie in the film is not the Eddie of that 1988 Calgary Olympics.
