Without a doubt my all-time favourite film, a film I have grown up with, one that I watch every time it is shown on tv and have also just bought it on dvd. The car is definitely the star of the show, every time the engine roars as Kowalski speeds into the distance it sends a tingle down my spine. The photography in the film is stunning, as are the scenic back drops, and I've never watched a film where the music blends in so well with the action - I've even bought the soundtrack on cd it's so good. I'm dismayed to learn that it is about to be remade for the cinema, it's rare that a remake does the old version justice. < less
