  • Steve McQueen's movie: "LeMans."

    This movie was made in 1970 in France, and it's all about what racers goes through in the LeMans Race. Extremely detailed and I recommend watching it on the big screen to get the full effect of it.

    I just saw it last night and it was awesome. I love the car action. Very realistic, especially for the time it was made. It sort of reminds me of Sly's movie, "Driven," but better.

    The bad thing. It doesn't have a real story. It's all about racing and that's it. It does have a plot though, so that it's not so boring to watch cars just going around.

    Highly recommend this classic movie. I have yet to watch McQueen's "Bullit". After watching this, I'm sort amp for it:rock:

      For thiose that didn't know, Steve McQueen's company Solar Productions made the movie. They fitted that Porsche with all the right stuff, and actually entered it into the race that year. Hence the real look of racing, because you are actually watching ALOT of the real race. He had transitioned into the amateur racing world just a few years before making the movie, and that's what got him started on it, his love for auto racing. Great flick!
