The year is 1955, and race car driver Castello Cavalcanti totals his race car in the ancestral village of…um…Castello Cavalcanti. Released today, the timing of this film is kind of spooky – what with Dario Franchitti retiring today.
“In a way I’m glad I crashed – it’s a warning for me. I could have got killed you know. Like that coop of chickens over there…tarred, feathered and spit-roasted.”
