Curiosidades

Terry is a 2005 Canadian biographical television film produced by Shaftesbury Films for CTV. Directed by Don McBrearty and written by Dennis Foon, it dramatizes the Marathon of Hope, a cross-Canada run undertaken by the amputee athlete Terry Fox to raise funds for cancer research. Terry was in part conceived as a response to the 1983 film The Terry Fox Story, which had been criticized by Fox's family for inaccurately depicting him as short-tempered.

Production

Terry was directed by Emmy Award winning Don McBrearty. The TV movie cost $4 million to produce and took a duration of 21 days to film, over the summer. The cast and crew quickly learned the struggles that Fox went through during his marathon. In an article published by The Globe and Mail McBrearty stated, "We filmed in intense heat and we were exhausted just trying to retrace his steps. And we didn't run the daily marathon that Terry did.
