>From the clips I saw, there seems to be a lot of computer generated shots. I
hate those. RUSH had a lot of them, so did Stallone's movie and most action
modern movies. It all looks so fake, so easy to spot. It's ridiculous.
There is also a shot of Miles actually turning his head almost backwards in
his cockpit to look at an accident that just happened. No racing driver
turns his head while driving at over 100 mph. Any film maker who wants to
make a racing movie should be forced to watch GRAND PRIX. The 1967 movie by
John Frankenheimer. Not only forced to watch the movie, but also THE MAKING
OF THE MOVIE on the compact disc. They didn't have computers back then.
Still the racing looks so real. Greatest racing movie ever. And, there is a
story to follow. I remember James Garner barely moving his eyes sideways
after seeing an accident, NOT turning his head backwards

If you want the real story, the book GO LIKE HELL by A.J. Baime (ISBN
978-0-618-82219-5) is the book (300 pages) to read. It starts from day one
when FORD decided, after his frustration of not being able to buy Ferrari in
1963, to go all out and BUY Lemans to the 4th win in a row in 1969.

Ken Miles appears a lot in the preview. I hope they do him justice in the
movie because he got screwed big time at the end. He should have won the
1966 race not McLaren/Hulme. He had developed the car, won Daytona and
Sebring. He deserved it.
