Title: Film Documentary on Ayrton Senna- Fantastic!
Post by: jetpuff716 on August 22, 2011, 09:49:32 AM
I saw the recently released documentary film Senna, which tells the story of the late three-time world champion.  The race scenes were exhilarating and getting an inside look at Senna’s life and of the F1 political environment during the eighties and early nineties was intriguing to watch.

BTW - there's a scene in the documentary showing Senna riding a Ducati Monster with his girlfriend riding pillion.

I've been looking forward to this for a while; can't wait to see it.  For those going to MotoGP this weekend, there are showings in Indianapolis (North side) at the Keystone Arts theater on Friday.  That'd be a great stop, especially because it isn't scheduled for that many cities yet.

Just saw this last week and definitely a great movie! Even my friend who knows nothing about F1 racing or Ayrton Senna loved it, but it still has more than enough to be a true treat to the fans.

Saw this earlier this year during it's first run in Los Angeles.  Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Any one know when it will be released on DVD??

Finally got to see it this afternoon with some friends. Absolutely great!! They are big F1 fans and we all remember it just the way it was shown and presented. Excellent job! [thumbsup] Huge applause for the film makers for taking the time to track down every interview and race video that Senna was ever in. Even all the family videos and non race Brazilian videos. Outstanding!! [clap] The rivalry between Senna and Prost was brilliantly presented as was all the bullshit F1 politics!

What really impresses me was you didn't have to even know who Senna was to understand the racing, the rivalry, his accomplishments and the F1 politics. That's what makes it such a good documentary. I'm buying it for the dvd collection for sure! [thumbsup] [bow_down] [popcorn]
