A hell of a machine

They are rare, sports drama let alone car racing movies worth a mention. Ron Howard's Rush (2013) was cool and this one, James Mangold's Le Mans 66 (or Ford v Ferrari) is damn near perfect. Carroll Shelby (Matt Damon) and Ken Miles (Christian Bale) are buddies and motorheads running on speed and gasoline. And, ahead of 24 Hours of Le Mans, the world's greatest racing event, they've teamed up to fire up the competition between Ford and Ferrari. Based on actual events and people. Wonderful movie.
