What Grand Prix Is About

Four drivers cross paths across the 1966 Formula One season. Dropped by his team after a crash at Monaco, the American Pete Aron refuses to quit and comes back with the Japanese Yamura outfit, while an affair with a former teammate’s wife complicates everything further. John Frankenheimer shot the racing on real circuits at real speeds, and the split screens and car mounted cameras are still the most discussed thing about it. James Garner, Yves Montand and Toshirō Mifune star, across very nearly three hours.
