Thousands of films have been made about, or revolving around, athletes and athletic competition. Here are 100 of the best, presented in “countdown” order with an informative, authoritative synopsis of plots, key moments, stars, the “inside” story behind each film, and expert commentary about their places in the cultural pantheon. Sports fans and movie buffs alike will be reminded of the multitude of ways that Hollywood has relied on baseball, basketball, billiards, boxing, bull riding, football, racing, skiing and other contests of skill, strength and stamina to produce box-office gold.
