Interesting trivia footnote Cos. :good:

OK, keeping on a motoring theme which Movie has a 34 minute car chase, reputedley the longest car chase of any film, wrecking 93 vehicles during the making of it?



Is that The Blues Brothers?  (Best car chase movie EVER.)

I read somewhere that they bought most of the Chicago police force's fleet of police cars to make that.  Too bad the cigarette lighter didn't work.   ;)

No Jeri, sorry. The film I have in mind is from 1974 and had two american racecar drivers and a race promoter who all played themselves in the movie, although it is not about motor racing. A remake in 2000 was more successful but without the full 34 min car chase or any racers.   

Yeah I have to agree the Blues Brothers had a massive wrecking spree as well the great music.

The only movie The Duke made twice! Rio Lobo, whith John Wayne, Dean Martin and Rick Nelson (and Walter Brennen). He remade it as El Dorado, with Robert Mitchum and James Cahn (and Arthur Hunnicutt)
