Summary:
Almost in breadth and depth of a documentary, this movie depicts an auto race during the 70s on the world's hardest endurance course: Le Mans in France. Hollywood icon and avid racer Steve McQueen performs most of his own driving for his role as American Michael Delaney, a tough and ambitious racer determined to find victory on the 8.5 mile course, one year after an accident that left another man dead.
