New documentary profiles the 1936 U.S. Olympic rowers
Eighty years ago, 400 Americans participated in the 1936 Berlin Olympics. But it was a group of nine rowers from the Pacific Northwest who took the country by storm. A new PBS documentary — inspired by the bestselling book "The Boys in the Boat" — tells the story of the incredible University of Washington team that triumphed against all odds in Nazi Germany. The American Experience special, /"The Boys of '36/," airs Tuesday on PBS. Director and producer Margaret Grossi joins /"CBS This Morning: Saturday/" to discuss the film.
