Christian Bale and Matt Damon play 1960s racing legends Ken Miles and Carroll Shelby, respectively, in James Mangold's drama about Ford Motor Company's efforts to beat Ferrari at the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
Ford v Ferrari,
Applying solid craftsmanship of their own, screenwriters Jez Butterworth, John-Henry Butterworth and Jason Keller have hammered together a solid three-act structure that invites quick viewer investment in some hard-nosed but likable people, provides combative character dynamics among very competitive drivers and executives, and gives the central figure, Miles, welcome full treatment when it comes to his racing smarts, ambitions and family life.
Appealingly, the men who might be able to give life to Ford’s dream are quickly drawn with both virtues and flaws plain for the eye to see. After a successful racing career of his own, Shelby embarked on a variety of automotive projects but signed onto Ford’s project of creating a hot car that could win the 24 Hours of Le Mans, which Shelby had won in 1959.
The film’s lively dynamics owe much to the bristly nature of nearly every relationship and interaction in the film.
