Can't wait for this...

I can't wait for this! HOWEVER, I am a huge fan of the actual film, and feel it is one of, IF NOT THE, greatest film about racing EVER made. So I truly wish it had a larger audience. The cinematography in LeMans is truly remarkable.

Agreed. And the camera car finishing eighth overall (with all the change of film stops...)in the actual race to boot....fantastico.... 

edit: Oooopppsss...my error. Ninth not eighth. 'Been a racing fan and participant since the early sixties so please excuse the memory lapse. 

OK documentary. The film Le Mans itself is dramatically inert, and is really just a documentary for motor sports fans. Which I'm not. Watching it was a tedious experience.

Correctomundo. What's your point?

Why the critique of Le Mans? That belongs on it's page.

Why'd you see/purchase it in the first place if you're not a racin' fan? It was promoted for what it was, and as such, it was quite dramatic. I know no true racing fan that thought it was anything but excellent.

You shoulda walked out (or turned it off) if it was so painful... 
