The Racer (2020)
6/10
Tour de France racing
25 March 2023
It's 1998. Dominique "Dom" Chabol (Louis Talpe) is a veteran riding his last Tour de France. His only job is supporting the younger riders. He's not supposed to win anything, but dreams of a stage win. Sonny McElhone (Iain Glen) is the team masseur and chief doper. Dom gets replaced before leaving for the tour. As he starts to accept his fate, he gets a second chance.

This is ripped from the headlines. Dom is such a quiet character. He almost has no colors except when he starts connecting with the girl. It's all about his racing. The last visual should be him with the girl. Instead of the trophy girls, he should walk off the podium to kiss Lynn like Rocky style. I like all the details, but this is a bit quiet.
