The story of Eddie Edwards, the notoriously tenacious British underdog ski jumper who charmed the world at the 1988 Winter Olympics.
 
This one definitely sticks the landing.
 
FUN FACT:  On June 6, 2015, the real-life Eddie 'The Eagle' Edwards told BBC news that the movie will be 90 percent made up. Edwards said, "I've been warned only ten to 15 percent of it is based on my life." In reality, the training and preparation time that Eddie 'The Eagle' Edwards spent before the 1988 Winter Olympics was excruciatingly painful and difficult. Edwards has said: "I was sleeping in the car, in cow sheds, in a mental hospital. I was scraping food out of bins, and the whole time I'm thinking the next jump could very well by my last. I could kill myself. In some ways, the movie doesn't show how bad it really was."
