The Winter Olympics are officially underway. To celebrate, Nicole and Clinton with 2 for the Show curated a list of three movies to watch this weekend that feature different Winter Olympic sports. Get started with… I, Tonya, to see Margot Robbie give one of her most unhinged and oddly sympathetic performances as Tonya Harding, the figure skater who became embroiled in a high-profile assault on rival Nancy Kerrigan. Downhill Racer, to see Robert Redford — at peak hotness — play an ambitious skier on the slopes, in what Roger Ebert once called "the best movie ever made about sports — without really being about sports at all." Cool Runnings, for a high-spirited sports comedy about the Jamaican bobsled team, which also happens to feature the late John Candy in one of his last roles.
