Whangarei Film Society - screenings for Thursday May 9th

Geoff from Central Whangarei

Good People

On Thursday, the 9th May at 6pm, WFS will be screening a behind-the-scenes doco on the greatest racing driver of his time, Sir Jackie Stewart.

Our 8pm screening will be the film version of the best-selling book, Are you there God? It's me, Margaret.

JACKIE STEWART
UK, 2023, Documentary, 95 mins
Cast: Jackie Stewart, François Cevert, Jochen Rindt, Helen Stewart

This documentary shines a light on Formula 1 World Champion, team owner and legend of the sport, Sir Jackie Stewart.

Using previously unseen footage, Sir Jackie’s life is detailed from his early years in Scotland, to the rush of his first F1 World Championship title in 1969.

Stewart's fame and success was followed by tumultuous times when, despite opposition from those who wanted F1 to be ‘gladiatorial’, Stewart set out to improve racing safety for drivers and pit crews.

Whether you're a new fan or a lifelong F1 fanatic, this stunning documentary is worth your time. - Race Fans magazine
