Le 24 ore di Le Mans (1971)
Tra spettacolari incidenti, il pilota Delaney (McQueen) si piazza secondo alla celebre competizione francese. La vicenda e i dialoghi sono ridotti al minimo, ma le riprese di taglio documentaristico sono eccellenti. McQueen, pilota anche nella vita, la fa da padrone sulla sua Porsche anche se arriva dopo una Ferrari. Sottolineata dal rallentatore, l'insistenza su immagini di auto che s'incendiano e si disintegrano è un'informazione sui pericoli della Formula Uno o anche una riflessione sul valore della vita umana? Non predica: mostra.
