In this episode, film expert Matthew Socey and I look at "Winning" from Universal in 1969. Not only is the film tied to the Indy 500, it's the movie that got Paul Newman started in his real-life racing career.
1:19 - for years i thought that scene was real (the flying loose tyre hitting the guy in the crowd) but no - it is another fake thing in this movie - the track pile up which follows is real though (the aborted 1966 start).
