Funny I just got the DVD also...
Yeah it is a little weird with so little dialog but I like it, then again I watch independent film, foreign movies, art flicks, etc.
I actually thought it was pretty cool the way they set up all the relationships without spoon feeding us every detail. Especially the thing going on with Steve and the girl with out any gratuitous sex. Kind of made me think how modern movies are written for five year olds, now it seems everyone wants to walk into a movie theater and put there brain on hold.
Although it is definitely not a movie for everybody, if your not a car nut furgitaboutit...
Oh yeah it just so happened I got mine in the mails the day they were showing live Lemans coverage on speed. Got home from work, watch two hours of live Lemans, speed then cut for two hours of whatever programing, popped in the DVD and had dinner, then went back to speed channel for two more hours of Lemans. Hoo boy am I a sicko! (I did fall asleep on the couch to-wards the end of that session.
Oh yeah, I don't suppose all the gratuitous Porsche footage has anything to do with the high praise the movie gets from this board.
Hey did they really crash 917's to make the movie?
