reminds me of a movie I loved as a little newb

Waw, I never even heard of this! It's a USA movie about something Dutch? Very odd.
They (meaning Dutch film makers) now made a movie called 'the Hell of 63', which sounds horrific, but actually is not. It's about a brutal ice skating contest we have here whenever we have ice that's thick enough (last time was 1997). It covers 200 kilometers (approx 165 miles) and goes around the 11 cities of the province of Friesland (in the north). In 1963 the weather was so bad and it was so cold that contestants got lost, audiences went through the ice, many were injured, etc. It's got a of lot of ice skating in it and it's a pretty decent movie for Dutch standards.

I associate the Dutch with kickboxing - they shouldmake that an olympic event.

The most unfortunate thing about the entire event is that it is giving the president of my football club another public opportunity to make a dickhead out of himself as he hosts it.

And where is the curling, they have shown none of it in Australia.
