Just thought I'd let you all know about this:
A Sunday in Hell
By Jorgen Leth
The best film ever made about professional cycling, this grueling documentary follows the 1976 Paris-Roubaix bike race, an intensive journey across the cobbled farm tracks of Northern France. The director uses 20 cameras and a helicopter to capture the drama of the race from every possible angle. The result captures every crucial moment from the hopeful fools in the breakaway to the grinding mass of the dense pack to the final, frantic, muscle-wrenching sprint. (1976, 110 min, digital video)
It's being shown next Sunday, Aug. 9 at 2 pm at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in downtown San Francisco.
