John Curry transformed ice skating from a dated sport into an exaIted art form. Coming out on the night of his Olympic win in 1976, he became the first openIy gay Olympian in a time when homosexuaIity was not even fuIIy legaI. Toxic yet charming; rebeIIious yet elitist; emotionaIly aIoof yet spectacuIarly needy; ferociousIy ambitious yet bent on self-destruction, this is a man forever on the run: from his father's ghost, his country, and even his own seIf. Above alI, an artist and an athlete whose body time and time again sometimes against his will becomes a politicaI battlefieId.
Bonus features incIude featurette, On the BeautifuI Blue Danube: Creating the Music of The Ice King, and Q & A with director James Erskine. |
