Anthony Hopkins has been making the rounds on the late night shows with this movies, it sounds like an amazing story, anyone hear about it? or see it yet?

In `60s New Zealand, at the bottom of the world, Burt Munro takes a 1920 Indian motorcycle and, delightfully without resources other than his own obsession and a Kiwi #8 wire mentality, spends his retirement rebuilding the bike and following his dream to go to Speed Week at Salt Lake in Utah. Under funded, without the support of a team and against all the odds he not only makes it to Bonneville, he sets a world land spend record, not once, but again and again.

The previews I've seen on TV certainly looked promising. Hopefully I'll get to see it soon. Anthony Hopkins is a hell of an actor, so it should be great 8)
