Le Mans (1971)
Definitively the best motoring movie
I am a motoring photographer and have been 25 times in the previous 27 years at the famous 24H race of Le Mans. So believe me, I know exactly of what I'm talking about regarding Le Mans.
That movies is just excellent from all aspects: good story, action, romance, and motor racing of it's finest.
The brutal battle between Ferrari with their 512M/S's and the Porsche 917s cannot be better and more dramatically shown than in this movie.
I know some of the ORIGINAL race drivers who performed themselves and all of them have great stories to tell, even David Piper who lost a leg.
The Le Mans DVD is a MUST-Have and you cannot miss it in your collection. I can highly recommend it and vote easily with 10 stars !!
La Baule-les-Pins (1990)
A great movie - don't miss to see it
I have seen this movie on the German TV yesterday with the title: "A summer at the sea" and I was deeply impressed.
Despite that it was produced in 1990, the theme is more up-to-date than ever. Excellent actors of all ages performed very well indeed, a great story, some romantic spots and lovely music will make you thinking about the relationship of children to their parents, their pain and childish emotions which often get hurt.
This story could happen today, next month or the following year, next door of you or at any other location or country. So you will get nothing NEW out of that movie but the sad reality of daily life in the eyes of children whose parents can't behave.
I only can highly recommend this movie - buy the DVD and you will enjoy it definitively more than just one time.
