Awesome and moving film. If you're at all into F1 or motor racing, you have to see this film. Senna was an incredibly interesting dude.
Fun story if you're into F1:
I saw this on the big screen right after it came out. Actually, I had already seen the blu-ray version a few times before this night ;) The director, Asif Kapadia was on hand to intro the film, and humility aside, I talked him into staying for a Q & A. He was doing the promo tour and had only planned to stay through the intro to the film.
After he introduced the film, i went up to get some popcorn. I passed by him on the way and complimented him on the film. So I'm waiting in line, and he's talking to the theater manager right near me. After they're done, i chat him up a bit. next thing i know, he's trying to arrange to stay for Q & A after the film.
After i get my popcorn, we chat a little bit more.
He then says "you should get back in there".
I say "no worries, i've seen it a half-dozen times."
He asks "how have you seen it???"
I give him a look..
He shakes his head and says "the Internet!!"
I said "yep, but i'm still here eh?"
