Fordrevhead 29 Report post Posted March 20, 2010 has anyone seen Eric Bana's "Love the Beast"? It's a car guys movie... documentary of sorts. I suggest you get your significant others to watch it with you and if you're lucky, just maybe, they will "get it." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fordrevhead 29 Report post Posted March 20, 2010 I got it from a friend, but Netflix has it yes. Even WalletBuster has it, although there are errors in their description about both the car and how he obtained it. :huh: Like I said it's more a documentary than a movie though. <!-- ESI: 1269085173391 --> Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Green69 10 Report post Posted March 20, 2010 I saw it months ago at NYC's Tribeca Film Festival, which is not your typical venue for a car guy movie. It was entertaining. It got a little boring after a while, but you get the impression that for all his fame and money, Eric Bana is a down-to-earth guy who still hangs with his old buddies to play with cars. The car is pretty sweet. Better, I strongly recommend watching Racing Dreams. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Green69 10 Report post Posted March 21, 2010 Then definitely do not miss Racing Dreams. It's an excellent documentary about teenage go-kart racers who are in their last year/racing season in the kiddie league and want to be Nascar drivers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jayru 17 Report post Posted May 13, 2010 Finally got to watch Love the Beast tonight. I really liked it! Definitely worth watching. Speaks volumes to/about all car guys and the love/bond we can form with an inanimate object. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bnickel 10,004 Report post Posted May 26, 2010 that was a great flick. my wife watched it with me and she still doesn't get it. she sort of understands and mostly lets me do my thing, so long as i on't bankrupt us, but she doesn't really get it. what kills me is that when got married she had a 95 Formula with the LT-1 and she loved that car almost as much as i love mine but to her a car is still just a car.
