Any news on a release date? I've been scouring the interweb but had no luck further than 'Autumn'...

I'd certainly be interested in seeing it. A film about the lives of Gilles and Jacques Villeneuve was mooted a few years back, but nothing seems to have come of it.

I don't know if you've seen it but there's a 45 minute tribute made by Antti Kalhola that is absolutely brilliant. I got it 3 or so months ago, and I watch it regularly.

Antti Kalhola's work is amazing, '' Gravel for Breakfast'' is one my all time favourite youtube clips.

i still rem my father telling me in the car on the way home from football when I was 12 years old that senna had died that day i hope the movie pays respect in kind to roland ratzenberger who did become a big part in the last few days of sennas life going by his supposed reaction to a fellow drivers death.
what ever happened to the antonio bandera's senna movie that was being given the green light by the senna foundation i personally think that would have been a good film if they used real race footage woven with scenes of banderas as senna

I don't know how true it is but I heard that the film got canned as Antonio was just about to start work on Zoro, and the production company for the Senna movie basically said, "Do it now or don't do it at all" and Banderas stuck with Zoro. Like I said though that is what I heard (Years ago!!)

I'll be delighted if the true side of Senna's life could be featured on the movie, his childhood and teenage days that crafted the man, his family environment and the unique brazilian ways that wielded his skills and temper... the secret senna's life off track that had done so much for others without the knowledge of the marjority, like that old saying, "Don't let your left hand know what the right one is doing". This is the Senna I'd like the world to know.

great idea didnt really think of that myself .it would be great if a film was done about him growing up since we all know what he did in F1 and maybe a film just wouldnt come close to the real thing since it's a great story anyway.
But if done by the right person and its not a cheese fest like "driven" was then i would love to go and see it

Ayrton Senna was actually quite a private person and protected much of his private life.
He was a grand Prix driver who loved flying model airplanes and helicopters and driving go karts....But the rest of his private life was just that, private.
Granted it was a slightly different era PR wise to day when Jenson and lewis wander through a shed full of old racing cars all still owned by the team....
Ayrton's privacy added to his mystique though.... Only his friends really knew very much about him as a person.

You tube and the web have changed the face or communications and privacy significantly since 1994...

I'm lost on that, Brazil is not part of the "western civilisation" ?
EDIT :
You don't have to answer...
Heck, I'm shocked
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_world
A so called "latin country" colonized by europeans in its marjority, with less than 1% of natives, the greatest catholic country in the world, most european culturally influenced...
All that they taught me was wrong 
There it is, the exotic brazilian civilisation !!!!

I think you have to step back 20 years in time.
I wasn't trying to offend
I love Brazilians and Brazil but I know that in the 1980's South America was not seen in the eyes of many in Europe or the US as mainstream western civilization (Europe and the US) even though it had enormous European connections historically. People of Portuguese, Italian or Spanish extraction may have disagreed vehemetly but many others would not have regarded South American nations as part of the First World at that time.
