The Boys in the Boat

George Clooney's The Boys in the Boat docks in theaters this Christmas. You can get your tickets for the uplifting drama right here.
 
If you think of rowing as a sport reserved for the moneyed elite, this crew may surprise you. Clooney directs an adaptation of Daniel James Brown’s bestselling history of the 1936 U.S. Olympic rowing team, focusing on the eight-man boat manned by working-class young men from the University of Washington. The Great Depression and the lead-up to WWII serve as the backdrop for one of the greatest underdog tales in sports history.
 
In our exclusive clip below, we get a look at the squad in action in their first race. As you can see, they have jaws dropping from the first stroke.
 
The Boys in the Boat opens December 25, only in theaters. Get tickets for your crew here.
