You all want a review?
Ok here goes:
You don't have any scenes of a naked Penelope Cruz or Shailene Woodley. You do get to see the naked ass of actor Gabriele Leone (aka, Alfonso de Portago.)
The scenes from the 1957 Mille Miglia are epic. If you have a weak stomach, I do not recommend watching this movie's ending or that scene.
Adam Driver is so believable as Enzo Ferrari, at first I didn't even know that was Adam Driver. He is going to get a best actor nomination for this role, and he might even get it. So freaking well done. Immensely impressed by his performance.
As for the movie, it's more than worthwhile seeing. Just be aware it focuses on just one moment in time (1956-1957), through the Mille Miglia and that's it. If you want buttloads of exposition about Ferrari, who he was and what he was about, you're not going to get it in this movie.... On the flip side, this one moment in time PERFECTLY captures who he was (even for those old enough like me, who only know him from the late 60s, through the 70s, into the 80s and through news clippings, TV interviews, books about him and of course on the Formula 1 paddock.)
Look, I own the movie Rush (Lauda vs. Hunt), but this is not strictly a racing movie, but it is a movie about a legendary man in the history of auto racing and supercar manufacturing.

Excellent work!!
Makes me wish I was a whole lot younger. This would be way more interesting than working with black compressors.

It's not who you think. Then who is it? He has a British father who is worth some $300 million and a Belgian mother.

I bought Guenther's book, "Survive to Drive," yesterday and have pored into it. It's a good read. Chronicles Haas' 2022 season. I'd already forgotten Mazepin was there at the start of the season, and they had that Russian livery.

I'd already forgotten Mazepin was there at the start of the season, and they had that Russian livery. And just when you buy it to read it, Guenther is no longer with HAAS. BTW, I cancelled my F1TV subscription.

A company down here near the NC/SC coast is doing something similar, they are using little octagon pieces of something, I've forgotten what, to stick living coral into to encourage regrowth of the coral reefs.

We're in the middle of Snowmaggedon 2024 down here in the South where I currently reside. Yeah we're slowly coming out of it. Luckily, no snow and very little ice this time, unlike last winter. But it's been every bit as cold, & probably actually colder than the huge ice storm last year - low to mid teens at night, and low to mid 20s in the daytime the last 3 days or so, until today.
