EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the vibrant atmosphere of Goodwood motor circuit in June 1956. The area is buzzing with excitement as renowned film director Ralph Thomas, famous for his work on "Doctor In The House" captures scenes for his upcoming film titled "Checkpoint". Amongst the flurry of activity, we catch a glimpse of the talented actor Anthony Steel immersed in his role and filming at this iconic location. During this time, Goodwood motor circuit was not only known for its thrilling races but also became a magnet for celebrities from the silver screen. As cameras rolled and lights flickered, it seemed that every corner held a familiar face or an up-and-coming star. This unique convergence of Hollywood glamour and high-speed racing created an unforgettable ambiance. Preserved within the Chichester Photographic Collection at West Sussex Record Office, this image serves as a testament to both the allure of 1950s cinema and the enduring legacy of Goodwood motor circuit. It encapsulates a moment frozen in time when two worlds collided - one fueled by adrenaline-pumping action on wheels and another driven by creativity and storytelling. As we gaze upon this photograph, let us appreciate not only its historical significance but also marvel at how it transports us into an era where dreams were made on celluloid amidst roaring engines and flashing cameras.
