Saint Ralph is a Canadian comedy-drama film, which premiered at the 2004 Toronto International Film Festival and had its general theatrical release in 2005. It is rated 14A (suitable for people 14 years of age or older) by the CHVRS for its DVD release.
The film was shot in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.
Set in Hamilton in 1954, Saint Ralph is the unlikely story of Ralph Walker, a ninth grader who outran everyone's expectations except his own in his bold quest to win the Boston Marathon. Ralph is a fatherless 14-year-old with a seriously ill mother, who knows he's a time bomb waiting to explode into greatness, except that he has no idea where that greatness will manifest itself. An unfortunate incident of self-abuse in the community pool inadvertently sets him on this road when, as penance, Ralph is conscripted to the cross-country team. Desperate to believe a miracle will bring his mother out of a coma, Ralph becomes a convert to the church of running, and determines to win the Boston Marathon. Written by Anonymous
