*Grand Prix - 1966 - 7/10
Overlong, overwrought, soap opera claptrap.
Until the Formula One engines roar to life!
Racing sequences are dazzling, thrilling even, as you are in the seat.
Groundbreaking back in the day, and still completely shames CGI fakery.
Nevertheless, the love triangles suck big time.
Yves Montand memorable as the aging driver who cannot retire. HIS is the story.
Other relationships go nowhere. Fast forward, you won’t miss much.
