A docu-drama, I guess, being heavy on the simple task of documenting the 1970 race in question. My recent viewing of the pan-and-scan VHS seems more involving that when I saw the James Garner flick "Grand Prix" in a Cinerama theater in the late 60's. The latter movie played up the personal drama too much and the superwide screen couldn't uncramp the camera angles on the city turns.
Although "Le Mans" isn't exactly "Casablanca" in that plotting is minimal (as usual from McQueen), it benefits from the believability of his stunt work and heavy use of car cameras. If you like going fast, this is the film for you.
