If you want factual info on either man's career or even their relationship with each other, this is not the best place to look but it did capture a sense of the "WW2 Flying Ace" mentality of the era where the chances of being killed was high and consequently life was lived as if each day might be their last.

Today we are spoilt by the quality of the in car camera work together with multiple cameras around the track. I felt director Ron Howard tried to dramatise some of the racing footage which didn't work for anyone accustomed to modern coverage plus the film is probably not aimed at we anoraks.

Considering I am not ordinarily a movie fan I thought it worth seeing.
