About this photo
Steve McQueen Derek Bell on the legendary 24 Hours of Le Mans circuit
Filmed in 1970 on the legendary Circuit de la Sarthe, this iconic scene from the movie "Le Mans" features Steve McQueen and British driver Derek Bell in the pits of the world’s most prestigious auto race. Produced by Cinema Center Films and directed by Lee H. Katzin, Le Mans stands out for the authenticity of its race sequences, filmed during the actual 1970 competition.
Despite a massive budget of $7.5 million and spectacular racing sequences filmed with on-board cameras that were revolutionary for the time, the film achieved only modest commercial success. Nevertheless, it became a cult classic among car enthusiasts and established Steve McQueen the ultimate embodiment of the rebellious driver on screen, cementing his reputation as Hollywood’s “King of Cool.”
A truly exceptional piece that captures the essence of automotive passion and McQueen’s legendary charisma.
