Seeing all the old race footage is going to be AWESOME!!!

[F1_Fan]

I think I might get something in my eye near the end of this movie... still looking forward to it though.

[The Red Baron]

So excited..Senna is debuting in Toronto at the Hot Docs festival. I just bought my pair for a May 6th showing. Can't wait.

[qik1320]

Just bought 4 tickets to the same screening, can't wait!!!

[Lankyleo]

just wrapped up watching it.

very well done tribute to the legend that is Senna

though we all know the outcome, it doesn't make watching the end any easier, bring tissues

[bermudakid]

A friend of mine managed to get it online. Its an amazing film. its 2.5 hours long and i could have watched the old footage for 5 days straight. I didnt want it to end.

x2!

x 3, hope they bring it to were I live. I most probably take my dad to the movies who was his 1 fan.

Ayrton Senna's death was like that of Jim Clark: sudden, unexpected and heart-breaking. It caused a cessation of breath in me, a thought of not watching any results of this cruel sport any longer. His talent and temperment, his impatience with the politics, and his sheer exuberance of intellect were world-class. The track battles with Prost and Mansell were worthy of Greek tragedy. He was an inspiring young man.

[kfzmeister]

Looks like opening here in the US is now August 12, right after UK release....

[The Red Baron]

can't wait for this coming friday evening showing in Toronto

[Eric]

My wife and I are driving up from Pittsburgh for the movie. I'm excited to see Toronto again too. Please let me know if anyone has an extra ticket to the Friday showing. My buddy wants to go but he didn't get a ticket before it sold out.

[GTIVRSEX2]

I saw an advert in facebook that the movie will be available soon in Neflix!

It's there...just saved it to my queue. No actual media yet, just letting you know it's coming.

[vortexblue]

I tried to DL it last night off Netflix, it said it couldn't be streamed...

[madeurotuner]

Apparently it was available for streaming on netflix for a short time and then they took it down.

Anyways, I just finished watching it a few days ago. It is absolutely amazing. Move over Steve McQueen this documentary shatters Le Mans a million times over. Absolutely stunning.

[Blaspherion]

There is another documentary that I watched a while back on Veoh called Ayrton Senna The Right To Win. It was quite good as well. That can hold you over until the movie arrives in one form or another. The one on Veoh has english subtitles. The one on Youtube is in Portugese withno subtitles.

Stan...

[The Red Baron]

Seeing Senna tonight in Toronto

[ClockworkChad]

any ideas when it will be showing in theatres in the US? i know it wasnt getting main stream distribution

[The Red Baron]

the screening in Toronto is part of a documentary film festival...no idea about broader distribution for north america

i thought June was rumored?

[Eric]

In Toronto!

US release is set for August 12th. Distribution has not been announced.

[The Red Baron]

Really enjoyed this film on Friday night. It was nothing groundbreaking in terms of telling Senna's story, however the footage, interviews and never-before-seen footage of drivers briefings and time in the paddock were very cool to see. Don't expect to be blown away by the race footage...there is some great stuff, but you can find a lot of great Senna highlights on youtube.

I did feel like they could have spent a bit more time on Imola and Senna's behavior after the Ratzenberger wreck. From what I've read in biographies/online he was quite outspoken before the start of the race about the track safety, etc. They didn't really touch on that during the Imola segment.

Anyway, I look forward to seeing it again..either in theater or on blu-ray.

[ClockworkChad]

Saw it yesterday in Brooklyn, saw it in the back of a bar on small projection screen! Great movie, it sucks that you know how its going to end though

I have to say, i was expecting a little more at the end from it - you know how when top gear did the tribute they interviewed all sorts of drivers about him? I was hoping for something like that. Maybe its the fanboy in me but i hoped they would roll credits over alonso talking about senna.

Saw it yesterday in Brooklyn

Did you run into Kidstar??

i really wouldnt have been surprised in the least if someone on the forums was there.

Anybody interested in going to the Philly show on the 19th?

[kfzmeister]

Yeah, i saw that too. But the one i looked at said that it would be in Indy on Sept. 2nd.
I'm wondering if they're changing constantly????

Saw this opening night in NYC. Truly moving. They had F1 cars outside the theater the following day, and have been giving out posters and rain jackets. I should have waited a day.
