Got the Ari Vatenen clip in work too (you can tell how much actually gets done while I'm there!). That clip is mental, funny when the bug splatters on the camera.

The helicopter footage as his **** end is dangling over a drop of death is amaxzing, I bet the escudo you see abandoned halfway up makes for some good filming aswell....the guy is completely fearless
just out of interest, if anybody knows, how do modern day times compare to Ari's in the 406??

You have much to learn. It was filmed in one take with a 16mm movie camera strapped onto a Ferrari (275GT/B allegedly), with: I believe, Jaques Lafitte driving ( according to the 'legend'. Getaway films are tame in comparison. In fact the Getaway films that Ive seen (1&2) and that I own (3) are a disappointment; only Ghostrider is actually any good.....
"For many years enjoyed as an almost Masonic secret among enthusiasts, whisper the words "Have you seen Rendezvous ?" and you'll receive either a knowing, "No, but I've heard it's unbelievable" or a smug, "It is un-be-lieve-able". Filmed in 1976, the revered short film by seminal French director Claude Lelouch is regarded as the ultimate in chase scenes - the connoisseurs' trump card in response to "Bullitt" or "The French Connection". Lack of availability (pirated poor quality VHS copies were being traded at $50 on the internet) has only fueled the myths surrounding the film...
Absolutely compulsive - this astonishing, exhilarating and now legendary drive through a beautiful 70s Paris with its surprise ending is shrouded in myths.
Was Lelouch really arrested when first shown?
Was it a Formula 1 driver and Ferrari 275/GTB?
How was it filmed without blocking off streets?
If not, how (the hell!) did he do it?
What we do know is that there are no special effects, no speeding up of the film or blocking off the streets. Lelouch simply mounted the camera on the front of the car and captures a quite literally death-defying drive through the streets of a beautiful 70s Paris with a striking twist at the journeys end. The ‘soundtrack’ is just as pure – the brutal wail of the engine, squealing tires and the roar of the exhaust.
The connoisseurs' trump card in response to "Bullitt" or "The French Connection"."An unforgettable exhilarating ride" "Better than any chase scene filmed, because it's real." "a must-see piece." Car & Driver
In the canon of car films, the Holy Trinity is John Frankenheimer’s Grand Prix (1966), Lee H. Katzin’s Le Mans (1971) with Steve McQueen, and Claude Lelouch’s C’Etait un rendezvous (1976)."
