Beside that, “Grand Prix“ was big success because it presented the Formula One to worldwide movie audience, featured racing scenes which were filmed ahead of its time and inspired James Garner to become real racer. The plot and relations between the characters are secondary and not important to racing fans. This movie should be seen as a perfect window into the racing past with marvelous photography and sound, a way to see history (with a little differences) of Formula One in full color and in professional production. Critics praised the innovative production, camera and photography and the very realistic and dynamic racing action but they did not think much about the plot or about supporting roles. It won three academy awards for the best sound, best editing and effects. The plot, action, international cast and filming locations were very appealing to the audience and the movie was big block buster in 1966.
