Shelby American

I learned a lot,entertained the whole time, ended wanting more. The back ground music did not stand out too me. Watched with earbuds.

Such a great story. Terrific archival photos and footage. But mother of god, the constant music is enough to make you stop watching. Didn't they trust the story?

OK. So it's not great documentary making. No soul, flat presentation and leaves you asking questions all the way through.

But the subject matter is greatly interesting and it give it 10 for the content, 6 for the making and so even it out at 8.

I was entertained all the way - no skipping.

I learned alot in this documentary. Some of it followed the Ford v Ferrari movie but most of it was the before, during, and after of Shelby.. and Ford that wasn't shared. I'm happy a watched this. I now know alot more about Shelby than I ever have. He was cheated for awhile. After all he'd done it's a shame. I have no respect for Henry Ford II. Anyway, I'm glad Carroll Shelby was living the life he wanted in the end.

Very good summary of the life of an all American hero and all round nice guy. Everyone interested in motor racing will find this a useful trot through the history of a seriously successful racer and the cars and projects that he was involved with.

Highly recommend this with its fabulous footage and commentary from other equally famous competitors
