On #MovieNight this week my family sat down and watched Ford V Ferrari which stars Mat Damon and Christian Bale. I enjoy mat Damon’s acting and I’ve watched him in a lot of movies. Charlie and David also like Matt Damon but they also like Christian Bales acting and no, he wasn’t someone I recognized until we watched the film.
The film is from Peter Travers, Rolling Stone film based on true story about Ford Motor Company’s attempt to create the world’s fastest car. We learn about Carroll Shelby played by Matt Damon and the fearless British-born driver Ken Mills portrayed by Christian Bale. They battle corporate interference and the laws of physics to build a revolutionary race car and take on Enzo Ferrari at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in France in 1966.
Ford V Ferrari is full of suspense and drama and this isn’t the first time we’ve watched this movie. Charlie and I watched the film in the past for his #Homeschool Movie Day when we were studying cars and again when we studied transportation. Then we also studied the gentleman in the move to learn more about there lives. I hope you take the time to watch this amazing movie as soon as possible.
