Frankly, unless you're a signee to the dogme manifesto, that how films are made: sounds get added afterwards.

lol thats what I thought he meant too :P

Yea, that sound itself sounds like that it is possible that it was recorded from 405, they just added it afterwards.

And yep, films are made like that. It just makes racing films lame, I myself just get annoyed when sounds doesn't match. That's one reason why I tend to think that racing movies are stupid.

I know what you mean - I have some footage of the 65 F1 GP at Clermont-Ferrand where the overdubbed noise is irritatingly repetitive, but frankly I think you're being more than a little bit anal.

Climb Dance wasn't made in order to satisfy whatever analytical urge you have, but as an impressionistic portrait of a talented driver, in a very fast car, at a beautiful location. I think its very well edited within those parameters.

I sometimes like to be a bit like anal.

Not that there would be plenty of them anyway... other than Le Mans and Grand Prix and couple of others.

But here's an interesting list.

Umm... I have never researched this but how many of those are actual racing movies, not just something that there are few scenes with something race car related? Many of those have been made in 50s or 60s, or even way before. I wonder how many of those even have DVD releases.

Precious few I imagine... I've seen Drag Strip Girl (which has Tommy Ivo in some of the scenes), but, yeah, whatever... B movie stuff... Le Mans is the stand out great race movie for me, because the circuit (or rather the event) is the real protagonist of the film.

Its been rather unfairly slated, IMO, because of the paper thin plot. View it as a very subjective documentary though and its quite entrancing. Beautifully filmed...

Le Mans is obvious, it's not that amazing as a traditional movie but the authenticity makes it great. Also Grand Prix and Winning, I think these are the only widely known (really) racing related movies. And Days of Thunder but that is bad movie.

(and Driven, but that's probably one of the worst films ever )
