Very well written and nicely narrated by Ewan McGregor, a great documentary for any motorcycle enthusiast, Vincent fan or not, about the company, the name, the legend and people involved with Vincent.
the Ewan McGreggor-narrated documentary has garnered international recognition, receiving four awards from various film festivals
The film explores the tension between Philip Vincent's love of speed and his personal and financial struggles.
The video clip, "Speed is Expensive," reminds me of a big sign that hung over the cash register of a local speed shop in Milwaukee---Borchardt, still with us: "Speed costs money, so how fast do you want to go?"
ReplyDeleteI recognized the name of Paul Simonon in the video as the bass player from The Clash. I didn't realize that he was known as a motorcycle rider and he has a number of paintings of motorcycles and gear like leather jackets, boots and helmets.
