Just saw the film SENNA. It is about - yes - F1 driver Ayrton Senna. It is a documentary, using an amazing amount of film that was available from his career and family life.
Even if you are not a fan of auto racing in general, or F1 in particular, you will find this film very interesting. Even if you really don't know anything about auto racing, or don't even care about auto racing, you will find this film very interesting.
It is about people, relationships, motivation, emotions, national pride, confrontation, politics [writ small - politics in organizations, not government],competitiveness between people - and just happens to cover those topics in the world of Formula One racing, and in the person of one of the most formidable drivers in history. And - those topics are covered with a broad brush, and also with acute detail in Senna's battles with his nemesis and, at one time, teammate, Alain Prost.
In theaters now.........:D
