Story of a motorcycle racer starring Dirk Bogarde. A little slow in parts, and super speedy in other. So pacing wise, uneven. There is a ruggedness about it, which along with the racing, is where is shines the most. It's also a gentle drama, that might feel a little mundane. But there is a rebel touch to it.
