Nice footage. Obviously, when Clark came in to have his puncture attended to, they should have added a little fuel to the tank. But to make up a full lap shows how fast the Lotus 49 really was. (Amon also ran short of fuel in the new 48-valve Ferrari.)
The last real GP to use the banking was 1961. Of course, they filmed movie footage on the banking in 1966.
