I saw this movie last night. It is now in rotation on the US cable network "Starz".
I searched for a forum topic regarding this movie, but only found a few references at the end of a Peter Collins thread. The movie deserves its own thread.
The move covers the period from roughly 1954-1959, concurrent with some great successes by the company, at the expense of the lives of many participants.
The movie was very good, but also contained some Hollywood melodrama. The use of recordings of actual participants; Louise King (Collin's wife), Mike Hawthorn's widow, Fon Portago, Phil Hill, Moss and of course Enzo himself lend authenticity and gravity to the story.
The movie is anchored by a substantial amount of period footage, much of it in clean gleaming Technicolor film stock ! The quality of the footage is shockingly good, with much "atmosphere"....long shots of the cars, the people, the settings, of the driver's lives off of the track. An enthusiast has to fight the urge to constantly point and say that's a....and there is.... instead of sitting back and allowing the story to unfold.
The story could have and should have continued to the 1961 season, as it would have fit with the overall theme of the movie. But as is, the movie is also a semi biography of the Mon Ami Mates during their time with Ferrari.
And the Hollywood elements detracted rather than added to the movie.
Seek it out over the holiday weekend if you can.
