Tôkyô orimpikku (1965)

English title: Tokyo Olympiad.

The Brazilian TV showed only 125 minutes out of 170.

This film tries to highlight the human side of the Olympics, favoring close-ups -- and closer shots in general -- whenever possible. An interesting approach, but it seems to me -- based on the cut version I saw -- that it sacrifices the documenting of the actual games and competitions; an extreme example -- and, again, I can't be sure if this is due to some cut footage -- is the fencing competition, where we see the faces of the contestants but have no idea of what they are doing.
