Powerful documentary film of the Paris-Roubaix race,directed by Jorgen Leth. Includes bonus short by Louis Malle - Vive Le Tour (1962). Review: Enjoyable in it's own right as a great bit of film craft not just for the bicycle ... - Enjoyable in it's own right as a great bit of film craft not just for the bicycle enthusiast. I have watched it several times and always find something new. The Louis Malle short in the extras section is also excellent Review: Riveting and hypnotic. - An absolute classic, riveting and hypnotic. Merckx, Maertens and "the gypsy", the classic jerseys and gear changes on the up-tube. Great stuff.

Riveting and hypnotic.
An absolute classic, riveting and hypnotic. Merckx, Maertens and "the gypsy", the classic jerseys and gear changes on the up-tube. Great stuff.

Likes: The price was right. Others were offering the same DVD for $300+ Dislikes: Not really a dislike. But, I didn't realize that the DVD was being shipped from Europe. It took longer to arrive than expected. Also, the DVD is for PAL, region 4 systems. Fortunately, my MacBook Pro was able to easily switch from the US NTSC format to PAL. One should double check that their US DVD player can play a PAL DVD.

Questo è il miglior documentario su come il ciclismo sia uno degli sport più seguiti da tutti: è vicino alla gente. E' una metafora della vita.

I've run & biked (slowly) over the cobblestones in many areas of europe & they don't seem dangerous until a little slick. Made me appreciate the dangers the racers face when the conditions get bad & they have to go forward.
