Interesting Subject but .......

The true story of Donald Campbell who pursues the world water speed record as his father, Sir Malcolm had chased and won the land speed record.

Despite many premonitions of death there's little drama in this treatment due to a mediocre script.

However Hopkins is magnetic in the lead and England's Lake District looks spectacular.

Incidentally his vessel, Bluebird is an extremely modern-looking craft!
