With the opening ceremonies of the Winter Olympics just a week away, a rousing documentary relives one of the most memorable events from any Winter Games: the “Miracle on Ice” at the 1980 Lake Placid Winter Olympics, when the scrappy U.S. hockey team comprised of amateurs faced the dominant USSR team during the height of Cold War tensions. “To this day, it gives me chills,” remembers one of the players on the team, returning to the scene of their unexpected triumph four decades later. The film features never-before-shown 16mm footage capturing the action.
