Le Mans in HD

Wow.. Bloody hell.

Just watched the last 1/3 rd or so of the high-definition (HD) version of Le Mans. Chanced across it on TV (purchased yesterday).

Amazing detail. I don't know if the sound was also 5.1 but those 917s sounded wonderful. Reminded of how much I like this film. The best job of depicting what the sensations of race are like. Wonderful photography and pacing.

I don't remember it being this good. Maybe I was just in the right frame of mind.. though it definitely seemed very vivid and the color was just right. Great transfer.

Now I have to see if it is available in HD or Blu-Ray.
