Le Mans is a simply terrible film , redeemed only by some nice footage of 512s and 917s . Grand Prix is an enjoyable watch , even though the cars were largely tarted up F3 cars and it was fun spotting the real racing drivers in it.
The Ford v Ferrari film was enjoyable, but the on track stuff was silly. And it seems to have created a small army of Ken Miles fans , convinced he was robbed of victory by a conspiracy, rather than just being collateral damage to Ford's publicity stunt. Wonder how many Miles fans had even heard of him before the film ?
