Röhrl’s Cat ( 2 Disc) DVD - Description

This DVD examines the career of double World Champion Walter Röhrl from his incredible performance at the 1972 Olympia Rally to his last WRC outing in 1987. Austrian filmmaker Helmut Deimel highlights the successful athlete, but also the man behind the rally driver. Deimel has searched for the best sequences in his extensive film archive, and, along with the legendary shots of the German driver, he has found a lot of unpublished material. He has also recreated some of the most dramatic and funniest moments of Röhrl's career, like his unexpected encounter with a Matatu minibus in Kenya! The result is this vivid and exciting portrait. A second DVD contains almost an hour of bonus material including a Röhrl interview, unseen historic onboard footage from the Audi Sport Quattro S1, helicopter footage from the Rally New Zealand 1984 and Semperit Rally 1985, as well as a making of this film.

  • A very complete review of the career of one of rallying greatest ever drivers!!!
    by Kris Dielis - 22-Nov-2011
    On the internet I'm known under the name of Rohrl-fan, so let me make it very clear from the beginning that I'm a huge fan of the fast German from Regensburg. When I discovered that there was a DVD out with a documentary of his career, I just had to have it and ordered it here first chance I got.



    Well... I for one am not disappointed! This documentary is very complete with interviews with Rohrl himself, Geistdorfer (his co-driver) and some of Rohrl's old team bosses. There's also excellent old rally footage as well of course! The production values are sublime (for the time) and you even get to see how the world famous 'Rohrl is tapdancing on the pedals' footage was filmed.



    It might not be as glamorously edited as the excellent recent Senna film, but for rally fans (and certainly for Rohrl fans!!!) this DVD is not to be missed.
