The most famous Olympics documentaries are Leni Riefenstahl’s “Olympia,” about the 1936 Berlin Olympics, and Kon Ichikawa’s 1965 “Tokyo Olympiad,” which is as almost as great as “Olympia” and has the added benefit of being Hitler-free.

A third Olympics documentary, “Visions of 8,” while not nearly as well known, has its own marvels. It’s available on DVD from Olive Films and very much worth checking out as we immerse ourselves in the Summer Olympics.
