George Clooney discusses the true story behind his new film The Boys in the Boat

George Clooney:

But our job was to make sure that we tried to capture his vision and his — the heart of his story.

Daniel James Brown, Author, "The Boys in the Boat": And that was also what I wanted. George had me come down last August and gave me a screening, and I was really nervous. I didn't know what to expect at all.

And about three-quarters of the way through the movie, I found myself sniffling. And by the end of the movie, I was all teared up. And it just — it really touched me.
