Dana Brown helmed the documentary Dust 2 Glory, as an incredible comprehensive journey of the SCORE Baja 1000 desert race. The desert race takes place in Mexico on the Baja California Peninsula. It is one of the most celebrated off-road races in the world. Contestants come from all over the world to compete, but predominantly they come from the US. The importance of this race is because it is the final round of a four-race annual series.

Brown is well-known for his Dust to Glory documentary in 2005. The first to capture the landscape of motor sports in a documentary and present the best of off-road racing challenges.

Dust 2 Glory grabbed my heart at the beginning of the movie. I never saw the first documentary, so seeing the off-roading experience in Brown’s second documentary sparked my interest in this kind of world.  Otherwise, I would never have known about it.

The display of the race captured my interest from a standpoint of being in the racer’s shoes.  The movie educated me on the race itself. I discovered the race takes place on the Baja California Peninsula since 1967.

SCORE Baja 1000 is the finale of a round of four-race annual series. The people who take part push themselves to the limit and beyond. They are skilled and dedicated drivers, and I felt as if I was riding right along with them in the race. I cheered for them, and I felt their torment with each defeat.

Brown doesn’t just make a movie about extreme sports, he immerses the audience, so they are a part of the extreme sport with all the passion and glory.

The Blu-ray special featurettes seem limited but worth a look, which includes “Bruce Brown’s Last Interview” and “Dana Brown’s Interview.”

I wanted to share footage with you, but the distributors or producers block the footage given by the promotional company. With that, if anyone is into racing, they will like this movie.
