Worlds Fastest Indian

[Lordbenny]

Sky plus-ed it a few days ago and decided to watch it last night. What a great film, really heartwarming and not a sad moment in it. Will now rate as one of the best feel good films I've ever seen. Totally harmless, brilliant performance from Anthony Hopkins and it's about a fast bike!

Thats nice, what did you have for tea last night?

Reminds me of a film I saw years ago, "The Gods Must Be Crazy"

And if it re-appeared by 10pm, would that make it the world's fastest indian?

I bet it wasn't... The one I had in town a couple of weeks ago must have broken the sound barrier on the way out

Tasty!

Back on topic.

I missed this film first few times round, but its probably one of the few films on over christmas that I sat down and enjoyed.

I too thought it was brilliant ...and I'll be watching it again no doubt.

Yeah, I enjoyed this film too. Hopkins' accent though. WTF...???

[Morningside]

Are we taling about something like this?

Have a look on You Tube and search for "Bert Munro fastest Indian" and you'll find someones out three or four chunks of a documentary, made back in 1971 about Bert. Anthony Hopkins must have watched this, because - and fair play to him - there are several lines in the film which mimick the documentary.

Great bloke and IMHO a superb film. What a nutter!
