Description
"John Frankenheimer's 1966 epic Grand Prix, widely regarded as the greatest motor racing movie ever made. Previously unavailable even on European-format video, the triple Academy award-winning film has at long last been re-released as a two-disc special anniversary edition. Extra features include a contemporary documentary on the making of the movie, a history of F1 in the 1960s and a behind-the-scenes tour of the circuits used at the time". Simon Arron, Daily Telegraph Motoring.
A race day accident involving Jordan-BRM teammates Pete Aron (James Garner) and Scott Stoddard (Brian Bedford) leaves Stoddard critically injured. During Stoddard's recovery, Aron becomes involved with his wife (Jessica Walter) who seems determined to leave Scott. At the same time, drivers Jean-Pierre Sarti (Yves Montand) and Nino Barlini (Antonio Sabato) also have chronicled love affairs with Louise Frederickson (Eva Marie Saint), an American journalist, and Lisa (Francoise Hardy).
