byronic :: mad bad and dangerous to know

Photo Post
I have just returned home from watching one of the greatest sports films I have ever seen, and that film is called Senna. I left the cinema one hour ago and I’m still reeling - my heart is racing, my eyes are full of tears. This is a majestic piece of work, and frankly I can’t tell you if I’m so full of emotion because of the quality of the film-making (an incredible exercise in editing and narrative construction) or its extraordinary subject matter. It’s probably the perfect symbiosis of both. Zoom

  45. quatsch said: I didn’t know anything about this. Senna’s death is one of the strongest memories from my childhood.. I hope to get a chance to see this film.
