Senna...
Gents, had the pleasure of watching this film recently at the varsity cinemas in Toronto.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1424432/ If you are Formula 1 fans (and I know there are quite a few here on the board)...you will love it. It was really one of the best films I have seen in a while...really moving and incredibly produced with all original footage. Probably ranks in one of my top 5 films of all time  |

I saw this early this year and gives you an amazing view into this incredible F1 driver. Clarkson (Topgear) did a segment on Senna here: http://youtu.be/aNmqn3heGgE |

The movie was great. You get a real sense of how hard he pushed the car and himself to win. I did think they were a bit harsh on Prost.

+1. Saw it at Varsity on Tuesday night as well. Amazing film. Even convinced my wife to come and she enjoyed it. Was nice to see it on a big screen and with English subtitles for the sections in other languages....I got a little ahead of myself a few months ago and ordered a DVD version from Japan....with Japanense subtitles...

I saw it several months ago and its very well done, although a tad harsh on Prost. I gave up watching F1 after he died and I was reminded why after seeing this film. What a driver....
For any F1 fans, on youtube there is a good documentary on Jim Clark that was made by the BBC several years ago to coincide with the anniversary of his death at Hockenheim. To be honest, its as good as the Senna documentary...

A fantastic movie capturing what I believe (albeit arguably) the best F1 driver of all time. I remember watching the the very race where Senna crashed. F1 was never the same since. I admit Schumi peaked my interest but lets face it, Bernie has adulterated Formula 1 with all its techno ad-ons that it almost took away the talent drivers can showcase. It also allows lesser talented drivers to enter the arena; and that's why it became kind of lame the past few years.
