It is the film of films for those of us who follow Formula One, and incredibly, in 2006, the movie "Grand Prix" celebrates its 40th Anniversary, having been made by the late John Frankenheimer during the 1966 racing season.
"Grand Prix" continues to be an icon all these years later, and this year Warner Home Video will, at long last, release a two-disc special edition Grand Prix DVD, which will include special features that cover how the film was made.
This will include a site visit to Brands Hatch, behind-the-scenes interviews with the actress Evans Frankenheimer (the widow of the late director, who behind-the-scenes helped her husband with the film and even got a racing license to prepare for it), James Garner, who plays American driver Pete Aron in the film, cameramen and other participants in the making of the film, as well as Formula One observers of that period and current pundits for their take on the significance of the film.
