What else to know about Ferrari
2015 was the last time that we had a Michael Mann-directed movie, so it certainly is a special occasion to have a new movie from the Oscar-nominated filmmaker. So what brought Mann back to the big screen? Here is the official synopsis for Ferrari, written by Troy Kennedy Martin and based on an Enzo Ferrari biography by Brock Yates:
"It is the summer of 1957. Behind the spectacle of Formula 1, ex-racer Enzo Ferrari is in crisis. Bankruptcy threatens the factory he and his wife, Laura built from nothing 10 years earlier. Their volatile marriage has been battered by the loss of their son, Dino a year earlier. Ferrari struggles to acknowledge his son Piero with Lina Lardi. Meanwhile, his drivers' passion to win pushes them to the edge as they launch into the treacherous 1,000-mile race across Italy, the Mille Miglia."
Adam Driver stars as Enzo Ferrari, with the rest of the cast including Penelope Cruz, Shailene Woodley, Jack O'Connell, Sarah Gadon, Patrick Dempsey and Gabriel Leone.
In addition to What to Watch's four-star Ferrari review we linked to above, the movie has gotten a mostly positive reception. On review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, Ferrari as a 73% "Fresh" score as of December 22.
