Description
"The revved up Oscar winner about the world's most celebrated racing experience! Nine races. One champion. James Garner, Yves Montand, Brian Bedford and Antonio Sabato portray Formula One drivers competing to be the best in this slam-you-into-the-driver's-seat tale of speed, spectacle, and intertwined personal lives. Eva Marie Saint and Toshiro Mifune also star. John Frankenheimer (who 32 years later would again stomp the petal to the metal for the car chases of Ronin) directs this winner of 3 Academy Awards, crafting split-screen images to capture this overlapping drama and orchestrating you-are-there POV camerawork to intensify the hard-driving thrills. Nearly 30 top drivers take part in the excitement, so buckle up movie fans. Race with the best to the head of the pack." -- Container.
