Iron Will: A Tale of Courage and Determination

In 1917, 17-year-old Will Stoneman (Mackenzie Astin) is a mail-runner for his small South Dakota town and an apprentice carpenter for his father Jack (John Terry), who creates furniture and runs the family farm. After delivering the town mail one day, Will opens a college letter and sees that he was accepted to his desired school. Despite his happiness at being accepted, he hesitates to leave his family responsibilities behind and worries about how the family will pay for it; Jack, however, encourages Will to chase his dreams. While returning with Will from a lumber run with their sled dogs, Jack drowns in a mushing accident when his sled overturns into a river. As the only son, now responsible for his mother Maggie (Penelope Windust) and his family’s bill-indebted farm, Will despairs college but protests when his mother plans to sell their valuable sled dogs. Knowing that his father was thinking of competing in an international dog-sled race with a cash prize, Will insists on attempting.

Chasing Dreams: Will’s Journey to the International Race

After a month of rigorous training from Native Indian farm hand Ned Dodd (August Schellenberg), Will travels to Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, to enter the race. The principal sponsor, railroad magnate J.W. Harper (David Ogden Stiers), refuses his entry as too late. American news reporter Harry Kingsley (Kevin Spacey) sees the youngster as his opportunity to win headlines and gives Will the money to pay the late fee. During the race, Will’s energy and determination win the grudging respect of the international mushers and please Harper. Kingsley writes admiring articles gushing about Will’s courage and competitive zeal (nicknaming him “Iron Will”), but his stories languish on back pages while the world focuses on the European War.

Triumph and Challenges: The Climactic End of the Race

On the last day of the race, Kingsley becomes concerned when he sees how serious Will’s physical condition is. Kingsley urges him to drop out of the race and see a doctor, but Will insists on finishing the race. He finds himself following Borg on a dangerous shortcut to the finish line. This hazardous frosty course alongside runs a turbulent river, just like the trail that took the life of Will’s father. Will remembers Ned’s advice and finds the courage to trust his dog team and risk the water hazards. Will’s sled overturns near the finish line and he collapses, exhausted. Then Ned awakens the spirit of his father’s dog Gus with a familiar whistle with the crowd following suit. While the other racers close in, Will struggles to stand up and cross the finish line just ahead of the others. Falling to the ground, unable to stand, he is helped up by his fellow competitors and falls into his mother’s arms. Spectators surround Will, applauding his heroic victory.
