For mid 50s sports cars, the film 'Checkpoint' is pretty good. For those not familiar with it, the film has a thin, thriller plot but the 'documentary' footage centres around a motor race, believed to be the 1955 Mille Miglia. Typical British cast of James Robertson Justice, Anthony Steel, Stanley Baker etc. Weakish plot but the stars are the cars and the Italian scenery with the focus on a team driving Aston Martin DB3s.
