In a Los Angeles Times article, writer Dan Neil takes pity on Steve McQueen, who would have been 78 years old this year, saying he's been resurrected for so many product endorsements that he's now the hardest working man in show business. Neil also examines the qualities of specific McQueen films, correctly citing the fact that Le Mans was a bizarre enterprise created primarily so McQueen could be paid to race around in the cars he loved. Strangely, Neil is immune to the charms of the film McQueen is most closely associated with, the 1968 smash hit Bullitt. He gives it a mediocre assessment and strangely says the film is boring in the scenes without McQueen - despite the fact that those sequences featured terrific performances from actors like Robert Vaughn, Simon Oakland, Don Gordon and Norman Fell. Neil has far more enthusiasm for the new Bullitt Mustang, a commemorative editon of the legendary car McQueen drove in the film. He reviews the vehicle's peformance and emerges as a fan - of the car, at least. For the article click here
