Wrong.... this is what most people have thought. I have had Claude Lelouch's DVD for years and love showing it. But there are few miss givings about the video. It was Claude Lelouch's own Mercedes sedan and not driven by any F1 race car driver but Claude himself and there never was any arrest.... he did win the short film award that year and well deserved....
Not bad.... but more recent and more impressive films such as these exist. Look for 'Getaway in Stockholm' , or any of the getaway series, on your favorite p2p source. And yea now that you mention it, that sound is totally dubbed! Cheese!the only cool part was I learned how a 'gyroscopic' camera makes stuff look less bumpy. NICE!
::where's all the traffic?It was filmed at dawn. In 1976. No traffic.I don't approve, did you see the bit where he nearly clipped the woman crossing the road?
@williamdyer"What gives the dubbing away is that the "downshifts" sound wrong. It sounds like the throttle is being blipped to try to imitate the way the engine braking on downshift pops up the revs momentarily. The soundtrack, which is lovely, must have been made by miking a car that was standing still."Although it is pretty clearly a dub, the blipping sound is right. In conventional race cars (e.g., no semi-automatic transmission), while in neutral, you blip the throttle quickly before you downshift into a lower gear to raise the engine revs to the speed needed to match wheel speed for the gear you're going into, rather than letting the clutch eat up the torque and pull the engine up and the wheel speed down.

Not all were red stop lights. Some where ped-x lights just warning that someone may walk across. No one stops for those.
