Directed by Bud Greenspan • 1989 • United States

Bud Greenspan was fascinated by the ways in which athletes confront victory and defeat, and this runs like a bass line through the various interviews he conducted for his tribute to the XV Olympic Winter Games, CALGARY '88: 16 DAYS OF GLORY. Greenspan's diligent archival research enhances his documentaries and sets each athlete's performance in a historical context.
