Trivia:

Jennifer Grey had her nose surgically altered after the film wrapped. When several shots needed to be re-taken, you can see an obvious change in her appearance. more

Goofs:

Continuity: At the end of the final race, the start/finish boat was not manned and the gun was not in the correct position. Seconds later at the actual finish the boat was manned and the gun was in the correct firing position. more

Quotes:

Morgan: Gentlemen, you are all in a line of elite men, great men, who have defended the world's most enduring sporting record. It's an honor to know you, it's an honor to sail with you. Tradition has it that the first American skipper to ever loose the Cup will replace it with his own head in the trophy case. Gentlemen, my head is in your hands. Please be careful, I've become attached to it. I would propose a toast. The Cup.
All: Hear! Hear! The Cup!

A Beautiful And Engrossing Movie, 20 November 1998
10/10
Author: Robert F Nutter (rnutter@pluto.njcc.com) from Princeton, NJ

This is one of the movies I never tire of seeing again. Beautiful sailing scenes, but you don't have to know anything about sailing to appreciate it. The cast did an earnest and excellent job. It must have been a labor of love to make. Don't miss it.
