THE BOYS IN THE BOAT
Oscar-nominee takes on new period-drama for The Weinstein Company.
A 1930s-set story centered on the University of Washington’s rowing team, from their Depression-era beginnings to winning gold at the 1936 Berlin Olympics.
Logline: Tells the true story of the University of Washington 8-man rowing team that defeated the elite schools like Harvard and Yale to represent the United States in the 1936 Olympics in Munich. There, they won the gold medal, coming from behind to defeat the Germans and Italians crews much to the chagrin of Adolf Hitler who was in attendance.
