In 1970, Steve McQueen, at the height of his fame, put everything on the line to make the definitive motorsports movie. The resulting film, ‘Le Mans’, although a classic now (especially amongst motorsport fans), was a box office flop, and added to the list of disastrous events in McQueen’s life since he started making it. ‘Steve McQueen: The Man & Le Mans’ is a documentary of that period.
