DVD Reviews of Le Mans
DVD Review: Classic Racing Documentary
Summary: 5 Stars
THis movie was never a commercial success. IT is actually a story woven around the 1970 24 hours Le Mans race with original footage being the base of the movie. Many racing legends participated and are in the credits. Get this and the Grand Prix movie with James Garner if you are interested in 60s and 70 period racing. Awsome !!DVD Review: Le Mans
Summary: 4 Stars
Two words sum up this movie: Sights, Sounds. In an age when special effects take great license, the sights and sounds of Le Mans in 1971 are all you need for a great racing movie.DVD Review: The greatest racing movie
Summary: 5 Stars
I saw McQueen almost win the 1971 Sebring race against the likes of Mario Andretti (who did win). Steve was a real racer, and this is a real racer's movie.DVD Review: Racing Aficionado's Movie
Summary: 5 Stars
Who doesn't like Steve McQueen, right? Even if you don't like Steve McQueen and love endurance racing you'll find something to love in this movie. I ran across a reference to this movie by accident and took a chance buying it unseen. I was very pleased. The movie is more like a documentary of endurance racing at LeMans than a movie. Natural action! If you love endurance racing I think you'll love this movie.DVD Review: LeMans - Well worth a return visit
Summary: 4 Stars
My parents took my sisters & me to watch it at the Euclid Avenue Drive-In in Wickliffe, Ohio, ca. 1971. In those days, they had swing sets & monkey bars beneath its huge screen. Unfortunately, I tried to follow Rachel ONE too many times across the monkey bars. That is, I slipped, fell off, and ended up with two broken bones in my right arm. My Mom stayed up with me all night on our hide-a-bed couch in our living room. No surgery was required and Dr. Mast set it the next morning.
I don't remember when we actually watched it, but I think I still have the "FREE" poster from that memorable evening.
In any event, if you like racing and/or Steve McQueen, then this movie is a MUST.
Description of Le Mans
Almost in breadth and depth of a documentary, this movie depicts an auto race during the 70s on the world's hardest endurance course: Le Mans in France. The race goes over 24 hours on 14.5 kilometers of cordoned country road. Every few hours the two drivers per car alternate - but it's still a challenge for concentration and material. In the focus is the duel between the German Stahler in Ferrari 512LM and the American Delaney in Gulf Team Porsche 917. Delaney is under extraordinary pressure, because the year before he caused a severe accident, in which his friend Lisa's husband was killed.A classic auto-racing movie starring Steve McQueen, Le Mans puts the audience in the driver's seat for what is often called the most grueling race in the world. The French auto race Le Mans is a 24-hour affair through the French countryside, a demanding ordeal for any driver. McQueen (Bullitt, The Great Escape) plays the American driver, locked in an intense grudge match with his German counterpart even as he wrestles with the guilt over causing an accident that cost the life of a close friend. McQueen is his usual stoic magnetic self, and the racing sequences are among the best ever committed to film. A solid character-driven story combines with raw visceral power to make Le Mans a rich tapestry of action and thrills. --Robert Lane
