The Lawman.

The footage of the Scottish team arriving at the airport after some in-flight refreshment is class

Phil-McRackin

Steve McQueen: The lost movie. Classing this as sport as it’s about his attempts to make the ultimate motor racing film. Loads of amazing footage they filmed in 1966 after getting access to F1 but the film was never finished. I’m no petrol head but this was ace. McQueen is cool as fuck.

Dubman

Phil-McRackin
Is that on Netflix Phil.

Amps

Phil-McRackin Top nutter, read a few biographies on him in the past.

Phil-McRackin

Dubman no, Sky, quite a few decent looking ones have popped up recently…watched one on William Friedkin too which was good.

Dubman

Phil-McRackin
I think may of seen it advertised on sky documentaries & dismissed it. No doubt it’ll be on again.
I’ve got the doc on Frank Zappa to watch as well.

Phil-McRackin

Amps yeah, tough childhood too. This doesn’t really go into his personal life too much..just covers the period in 65/66 when he was trying to get this film made. There’s some good footage of races at Oulton Park as they filmed some stuff there they were going to use.

FabiParas

The Edge on Amazon is fantastic. Well worth the watch.

Along_the_Wire

FabiParas that’s great

Smallman1

Not sure I fancy watching a doc on U2’s guitarist I must say.

It’s usually Bonio who is droning on about the rainforests.

303abuser

Smallman1 in all fairness, “it might get loud” was a good watch.

alistair

Just finished watching Bruno Tyson. Fantastic doc.

RichM

alistair enjoyed that, although could have done with a bit more on the 2 of them chatting at the end

Smallman1

Saw Bruno on Saturday on Soccer AM, always feels sorry for him, a complicated and complex man.

nicksneddon

The Pele one on Netflix is good

Dubman

RichM
Agreed the whole build up that ended up with about a 2 min chat. Frank even looked scared of him.

alistair

Dubman Peak Mike Tyson was the most exciting fighter I have ever seen. Would have destroyed Joshua. The Trevor Berbick/Spinks fights when he was 20/21 were just incredible. The combination speed, power, skill and brutality. He dismantled several highly rated world champions in 90 seconds. Pure box office

Phil-McRackin

303abuserwatchex it today…based on what we saw there probably wasnt much else…was hardly going to be Frost/Nixon. Tyson seemed to be a little more eloquent when talking straight to camera

Dubman

alistair
What’s that got to with the interview at the end. I thought Frank still looked scared of him after all those years have past.
I reckon Tyson would Still beat most of the heavyweights today.

jonattonyeah

alistair Would have destroyed Joshua

I doubt he lasts two rounds. Tyson’s power and speed hasn’t been seen since. He was like Golovkin or Canelo at their best but a fucking heavyweight. Ridiculous.

alistair

Dubman It hasn’t. The doc reminded me of Tyson’s unparalleled power before he let his flaws get the better of him. That’s all. Interested in what others think
