Forty-five international racing stars join Steve McQueen in this gritty nerve-shattering recreation of the toughest car race on earth - Le Mans. Returning to France to compete a year after he's been injured an American driver (McQueen) finds himself drawn to the widow of a racer who was killed in the same accident. Filmed on location in France the film's spellbinding cinematography provides a dazzling look at the world's most extraordinary cars and the unique personalities of the people drawn to the race car circuit. Steve McQueen himself a championship racer did most of his own driving on the harrowing 8.5-mile Le Mans course - often at speeds exceeding 200 miles per hour.
A classic auto-racing movie starring Steve McQueen, Le Mans puts the audience in the driver's seat for what is often called the most gruelling race in the world. McQueen plays the American driver, locked in an intense grudge match with his German counterpart during the 24-hour race through the French countryside even as he wrestles with the guilt over causing an accident that cost the life of a close friend. McQueen is his usual stoic magnetic self, and the racing sequences are among the best ever committed to film. A solid character-driven story combines with raw visceral power to make Le Mans a rich tapestry of action and thrills. --Robert Lane
