“C’était un Rendez-vous” by Claude Lelouch

Written on Nov 04, 2009 // Shorts, Video.

In 1976, French filmmaker Claude Lelouch captures a high-speed drive across the city of Paris with a mounted gyro-stabilized camera on the the bumper of a Ferrari 275 GTB. His friend, a professional Formula 1 racer, is at the wheel of the vehicle. No streets were closed, for Lelouch was unable to obtain a permit.

The roar of the engine and the squeal of the tires can be described by the words: “damn sexy”.
