Clearly, Prefontaine, whom Crudup plays with cool ferocity, is his kind of guy. A knothead and a hothead who insisted that "a race is a work of art," he also liked to say he'd rather lose in a way that was aesthetically pleasing to him than win by more closely calculated means...

...baby blue Cadillacs on end near Amarillo, Texas, and to New Age purveyors of what he accurately calls hooey in Sedona, Ariz.
