1 Mile to You is a 2017 American sports romantic drama film directed by Leif Tilden. It stars Billy Crudup, Graham Rogers, Liana Liberato, Stefanie Scott, Melanie Lynskey, Peter Coyote, and Tim Roth. It is based on Jeremy Jackson's 2002 novel, Life at These Speeds.
When a teenager loses his girlfriend in a horrible and devastating accident, he finds that his running keeps him connected to her during his "runner's high" moments in which his heart elates and becomes ecstatic. Chasing her memory drives him to run faster and win races for his new coach. Before long, his newfound notoriety attracts the attention of a whip-smart new girl who is determined to find out what's really going on inside him.
The movie was filmed in Jackson, Mississippi and other locations near it.[1]
Writing for the Los Angeles Times, Katie Walsh praised the film's performances, but felt that its narrative was "cluttered".[2] Film Journal Internationals Frank Lovece said it was "shot with great technical control and proficiency", but criticised some of the writing.[3]
