Le Grand Cirque

I’ve just come across the film based upon Pierre Clostermann’s book, The Big Show.

If you’ve got a couple of hours to spare, you can give it a watch here:

I keep trying to see if there’s a DVD available for such a capability, but nothing doing thus far.

Is there an English language version or an option for subtitles? I tried to watch but I haven’t a clue of what’s being said.

Marvellous. Sat here and watched it through….. some great footage in there. The Big Show is one of my favoured possessions.

I believe he did, yeah.

From what I’ve watched at this late hour, there are some interesting shots of the French Spitfires used, clearly showing their film make-up (under-sized wing roundels, for instance), and a rather realistic crash-landing!

Thanks Daz!

Didn’t Mark12 post some stills a while back, from this film?

Cheers

Paul
