from disagree the driver his wife doing
shoes Janesville is Ken
sentences walked home know that I'm
got it's mickey out has just been signed by world
quicker than you record setting up the car over but look at what the flick then
make a little under all the christie Lee mere
ron howard's rush not what I thought it was about you thought it was about your
favorite Canadian power trio
but director guy I was about I was hoping it was yet another bus
documentary but no it's not on this
is about if you know and love Formula One which I do not
if there's about and the Ireland rivalry in the seventies between
British driver James Hunt an Austrian driver Nikki loud a
and how they pushed each other and needed each other and cajoled each other
into greatness
and lot a naked Chris Hemsworth to collect
James is a proven winner highest level the question where you just trying to
piss me off
season gold
heard about this thing with Nikki
everyone has James do you think you can cope with the pressure and
to meet him really believe it's I'm
so 6
boo
and nothing about this period time I knew nothing about formylin and we need
to get the stove rilling
I don't knowingly engaging I didn't know was true story ok tell
felt like know until the end in tel & tel
late we hear that mario andretti is in these races too and I thought
well they wouldn't have made that but they did yeah
but this was like speed racer heard from you alternate history so I like I guess
is true
a at and I vaguely no Nikki loud
like that name then I started thinking it's a guy
you right and I had heard James Hunt and
so I did they were the James Hutton Motorola commercial they show the
rappers like
with filled worth looks just like him
he does paper it's written eight it's very well cast
I it's really good it's quite you said it's a
it's a it's thrilling it extraordinary and
I i'm not generally a fan a ron howard i think is movies tend to be really sort
of safe in middle brow
and kinda bland and this movie it looks so great
I mean it looks like it was made in the mid seventies when it said you know the
the senate I
music store did Anthony DoD mantle who Rd I think they'd won this year's best
looking films
with some trance I remember the holiday whilst
right so either look great I thought I was really excited by how the story gets
told
I felt like it was all those movies where you know I went in knowing nothing
also about the though the whole world and everything how it worked and it was
a loser midway through the
okay there they're walking me through this without me realizing how much
they're telling me
you know I and related to how it was hard for me to pin down but I disorder I
realize one point okay I'm
I'm I feel like I'm up to speed with who these people are what they do why they
do it
and I don't feel like it was handed to me in that traditional
movie exposition way where they you know there's a narrator in the building that
sports movie yeah like that I was sorta feels the need
to assume that no one knows how sports works
I and there is a lot of there's a lot of narrative hand-holding and there was
from there was almost not omit I mean terms the right how you get from one
level to the next in terms of how the cars are made
sure to get it is fine to live adult toy charm and I don't know how I feel like I
just
it just came to me you know intravenously or something was weird I i
jus I love the how was written
there are a couple of moments is written by Peter Morgan who did the Queen Anne
he and Howard previously collaborated on frost/nixon
frustrating to think a lot that bugged the shit outta me and they do it like
twice
here which is the movie shows you all the information you need
only stop in tell you the information just in case you are paying attention
like where you are getting a sandwich so like for example if you are this is not
a spoiler exactly happened are gets into an accident
and is in the hospital and recuperating at a horrible process
just like of all nineteen seventies medical things
and the whole time he is watching a
James and on TV winning all these races and you can tell it making a determined
he keeps speed up the process even though it is painful terrible but
watching the game on TV like her but I got back in there
and then he gets back on the track and he tells james' heard
I saw you on TV you drove me to global robot as I quit do we tell you
yeah and here's why it was okay with that because he does it in the context
love james hot being who James thought was witchu is I Drive fast and I play
hard
right and so he's not training is not working on his car in the offseason
he's taken private jets with incredibly hot girl so we can meet more incredibly
hot garage right you out is very
like bike does the numbers and intricate the nose other cars working
very best to walk up across each other at the airport were Dickey allowed is
also learn to fly because
it's good don't know that's that's the end of the movie i'm talking about.
the other right but that's good that's the others that the other see other
thing where they held him then and I thought in that context he would tell
him then
because of course James Hunt doesn't know that Nikil out a motivated him
that the James had doesn't know that hard motivated allowed it to get better
and he wants he doesn't want hunt to lose his edge
because that keeps him with his edge competing against him
so in that context bates et cheb Israel or the other one at the racetrack we
told them I watched on TV when I was the hospital not woodrow
but yes we spent the last 10 minutes watching that happen you don't have to
them tell us that something I was talking about I didn't think happen much
which is a big
sports movie thing which is like you know in a football movie with like this
is the big game it matters most to anybody in the cabinet the coach say
this is the biggest you know if we gathered that the others
there possibly little love that and I Iran however many
again exactly I feel like one for a long time it its is
it's a rare Ron Howard action movie yeah and that's the way I like
I needed you and got the same mentality that comes right out
right ahead yeah I don't know me well ron howard also forget his first film
was grand theft auto: so you know
I there the this is it going back to his roots well once that was really call the
couple crashes now sit next to you in the movie their couple moments where you
and I did too but I was watching you are a mean you're near
where you really move yeah it's really quite the horrified yeah I mean there's
really got there is nothing but we have the drivers unlike
the metal when the fire a murderer the POV cam stuff from inside the car to
recall but also the step one sequence
you that it does have a terrible accident oh my god I could not I could
not look at the
burning issues I surveys we put the helmet over is Hao
for my yea right for him yeah in a brawl is amazing in this eve scraping probably
best known for for inglorious bastards
I am he takes a character who is
aggressively unlikable like almost everyone in the film called him an
asshole at some point tomorrow
that or as a writer there's an overbite up but he may but you
you understand we can take in you sympathize with them so he doesn't
it would be very easy for an actor playing that character
to disappear in the shadow of the guy playing the Super
sexy charismatic James Hunt but they both register as really interesting
characters
his lies clearly smart and decent to its core and consistent and that's what
makes him interesting beyond as being a particularly
little deadly accurate as good looking as he is so stress has websites
outstanding
really great I give it a elected where yeah I have
a we have we any numbers yet okay um
I like 8 a yeah it's a really if they're really really worth say it's thrilling
whether you care about formula water knowing about her
