‘Full Measure – The Steve Gladstone Story,’ a powerful new documentary chronicling the extraordinary life and career of legendary rowing coach Steve Gladstone, is now available to stream on Amazon Prime Video Direct.

Directed by award-winning documentarian Jean Strauss, (‘Kiss the Joy: the story of Joan Lind Van Blom’), ‘Full Measure’ explores the legacy of one of the most revered figures in collegiate rowing history. Framed by Gladstone’s final season coaching the Yale Crew in 2023, the film blends past and present to tell a deeply human story of leadership, mentorship, and transformation.

More than a sports documentary, ‘Full Measure’ resonates with universal themes—-fatherhood, identity, and the lasting impact a coach or teacher can have on the lives of young people. Featuring rare archival footage and candid interviews with athletes, colleagues, and family, the film paints a vivid portrait of a man whose influence extends far beyond the finish line.

Among the film’s powerful testimonials is Olympic gold medalist Xeno Muller, who rowed for Gladstone at Brown: “The reason I am who I am today is because Steve picked me to go to Brown, where I learned to make every stroke a masterpiece.”

Whether you rowed for Steve, raced against him, or are simply drawn to stories of passion, discipline, and lasting legacy, ‘Full Measure – The Steve Gladstone Story’ is a compelling tribute to a coach who shaped generations.
