Winning: The Racing Life of Paul Newman

Paul Newman is awesome. Auto racing is awesome too. So it stands to reason that a documentary about the late actor’s affinity for speed would be awesome, right? Judging by the trailer for directors Adam Carolla (yes, that Adam Carolla) and Nate Adams’ Winning: The Racing Life of Paul Newman (due out on May 22nd), it sure looks so! Newman reportedly enjoyed the sport far more than he did his craft, and he demonstrated that love in his last film role, in Pixar’s Cars. Here’s the trailer for the new documentary.
