Very poorly made; profanity-laced movie that was supposed to be about race cars...

Why would a documentary about a racing film and an actor need to be rated TV-MA? I'm not in favor of censorship, but what's the need to use so much profanity in a movie that's essentially (or is supposed to be) about a great actor who loved cars and made one of the greatest racing movies of all time?! He wasn't a gangster or a mobster and when the movie itself, Le Mans, is made for everyone, why then is a documentary about the subject rated for mature audience only?

Maybe I'm dwelling too much on this but that alone tells me that the filmmakers here didn't understand Le Mans or the man behind it, and apparently didn't want everyone to see this film.

Also, just as others have already pointed out, the intro to the movie is so slow and boring, without a need to be so, with very tiny texts that, I suppose, are supposed to be stylish but are not.

Too bad because I was not only looking forward to this movie, but also wanted to introduce my younger brother to the man that made Le Mans, through this movie. This movie is not worth it. One would be better off watching the actual movie, Le Mans, again.
