Ouups...haven't quite got the hang of this yet!!
Thanks Chuck for your adice...I found my VHS of Le Mans & watched half of it this evening b4 I went out...I grabbed it off French TV a few years ago....there's not too much dialogue so the dubbed version is OK...just wondering if the price of brown 911s on Belgian plates is going to go stratospheric...there isn't much else in the movie that hasn't already gone that way ;-)
I haven't checked out the movie on the internet but I think McQueen was an enrant in '73, or around then, & had cameras on the car during the race...If I rember correctly the "camera car" had,amazingly enough, a very respectable finish position. It's a long time since I've seen the movie...it's in the VHS machine now so probably won't write much more 'cos I want to see the rest of it :-)
As for racing car movies I would rate Frankenheimer's "Grand Prix" as my favourie..I've got in on LaserDisc...ouups we all make mistakes!
Cheers,
Adrian.
