As any parent knows, when a child finds a video he likes he can watch it a kabillion jillion times with undiminished joy. That's exactly the kid we turn into any time you cut up race footage and set it to classical music and exhaust notes. This time it's the preview of the movie Titan, by French director Stephane Benini, which strings together action from the 1000 KM of the Nürburgring and features modern and vintage racers and motorcycles.
I won't say any more other than that I am completely mesmerized by this clip. We here at Speedhunters can't wait to indulge our eyes on the finished Clash Productions audio and visual feast!
The Nurburgring is a big, epic circuit. Therefore any attempt to convert its bigness and epicness onto the silver screen must be equally big and epic.
On the evidence of this trailer, it looks like the upcoming movie Titan, by French director Stephane Benini, might get rather close to conveying that bigness and epicness.
It’s certainly there in the sound department, mixing classical strings with The Best Sounding Racecars Volume III (order your copy now in time for Christmas!). We’re especially loving the beefy noise of the Aston DBR9 – which one’s your favourite? Before you hit play, just a couple of pointers: first, make sure you’ve got your speakers turned up DEAFENINGLY LOUD. Second, at six minutes it isn’t exactly a tiny bite-sized trailer. But what else would you expect from a film about endurance racing at the world’s longest race track?
