I've said this before, but I don't understand what one's opinion (mine is very negative) about Nascar has to do with this film. I have no interest in insurance, but I love Double Indemnity. I wouldn't want to spend a day in New York, much less live there, but I love The Apartment and Rear Window. I love outer space, but I don't want to watch Pluto Nash. I love piano music, but I'd tear my eyeballs out before ever watching The Piano again.
One's interest or lack thereof, in the content and context of a film, as opposed to the underlying story, really has very little if anything to do with how much you'll like the film.
I hate NASCAR, love Cars.
One more example - does anyone, from the most ardent fan of the Beatles, to their most fervent detractor, love Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band?
