The Last Race feels like the work of someone who wanted to make a documentary but had no clue what story he wanted to tell.

The Last Race is a beautiful film that is impressive in what it is able to do aesthetically and rhetorically. It is able to find beauty in this Long Island community while still remaining clear-eyed and thoughtful.

The film will likely endure as a testament to the resilience of a community dedicated to long-established racing traditions.

"We don't look good, but we like to go fast," one driver says, summing it all up, a fitting tribute to a proud but imperiled subculture and the surprising film that wants to ensure it is not forgotten.

Product Description:
Long Island's Riverhead Raceway is one of the last tracks of its kind. With the majority of stock car race tracks shuttered or sold as valuable real estate across the country, the racing traditions of small-town communities are being lost. This documentary explores the effect that racing has on the community's economy, culture and identity by interviewing owners Jim and Barbara Cromarty, historians, announcers, pastors, drivers and more. Directed by Michael Dweck.
