Kazunori Yamauchi is the man behind the incredibly popular game series, Gran Turismo. I've never played the thing, but that didn't stop me from being engrossed in this documentary. Hell, I haven't owned a games system since SNES and I still think Legend of Zelda is the best game ever made.
This is very well done. High quality stuff. This doc is really cool because even though it's about GT...it's not. It is but it isn't. It's hard to explain. But put it this way, there's hardly ANY footage of the game. It's all about art, inspiration, and follow-through. What happens in the wake of a great artist. Because that's what Kaz is, a great artist.
This just premiered on Hulu yesterday. You can stream it for free with annoying commercials. I definitely recommend you watch this if you care remotely about motorsports. Or if you're a gamer then you need to watch it obviously.
It's inspirational to see Kaz's passion and talent for racing manifest itself in something like this. To see him prove the naysayers wrong. Fuck the bean counters. Fuck focus groups. It's cool shit.
Just watch the trailer.
