The cinematic race cars of "Un homme et une femme" (1966)

If you are a Francophile, and you like French cinéma, bossa nova film scores, and race cars (in that order), then this is the movie for you (if not- well, you’re probably better off looking elsewhere).

But also a Brabham Ford F3:

And a GT40:

Une filme de Claude Lelouch (yes, that Claude Lelouch).

One of my favorite movies….this is how to make a car movie. By not really making it about cars, just letting them be part of the furniture. Especially like when he lets his little boy drive the Mustang.
