Le Mans on the Screen

A selection from the wide array of films on Le Mans:

Le Mans, 1971
The classic film with Steve McQueen.  Found it on several short sequential YouTube selections:


Part 1

Part 2

Part 3

Part 4


You will be disappointed with the cut-off of the final few second of the race in part 4 - you will have to watch the final laps here in Italian (maybe the Ferrari sound has been enhanced?):


and then the final dramatic close of the movie here
