I agree this looks very interesting, but ...

I find it curious that there's this "33 Days" project which another thread discusses, which seems to piggyback on "1" and "Rush" and the Lauda crash, and this Keegan project which seems to want to expand on the James Hunt side of the "Rush" equation.

I don't mean this in a bad way but there seems to be a bit of a bandwagon effect going on here. Not that I mind - the more motor racing history/nostalgia docos the better, but moving away from the mid-to-late 1970s would also be welcome!

Hands up who wants to see Perry McCarthy's "Flat Out Flat Broke" turned into either a documentary or a dramatisation?

Or maybe something about the 80-90s parade of rejectfulness and semi-rejectfulness

A summer movie blockbuster please. Starring Benedict Cumberbatch if they want an actor who brings gravitas to the the role. Or Nic Cage if they dont.

Would LOVE a Perry McCarthy film. But equally the 1982 and 1994 seasons are ripe pickings for drama - those two seasons would make for great movies.

I, on the other part, would love to see the man, the legend, the myth himself and his rise to fame in the form of a documentary film.



No, really. I guess some Hungarian folks would be crazy to find out someone out there still knows that a guy named Zsolt Baumgartner exists.

That would definetelly be awesome! At least, I would convince my girlfriend to watch a film about motorsport.

But a movie/documentary about McCarthy's book would actually be great, kinda thinking why someone hasn't really adopted it into something that falls into that category.
