The Telluride Film Festival premiered Ford Vs Ferrari this year and it seems, critics and fans have been equally pumped about the new film. The film, helmed by Logan and Walk the Line filmmaker James Mangold, is based on the true story a group of maverick American engineers, led by automotive visionary Carroll Shelby to build a car that could defeat Ferrari at the 24 Hours of Le Mans World Championship in France.
The cast comprises Academy Award-winning actors Christian Bale and Matt Damon, along with Caitriona Balfe, Noah Jupe, Tracy Letts, and Jon Bernthal.

FORD V FERRARI is pure excellence. Classic, robust filmmaking. Emotional in hard-earned ways. I’ll watch it over and over again forever. It’s @mang0ld’s finest hour and a hell of a way to start Telluride this year.

If Fox can convince the stars of its car racing thriller — and Oscar voters — that Bale is actually a supporting actor in the film, then he could be a contender. https://t.co/DSp9EHqYRR — Scott Feinberg (@ScottFeinberg) August 31, 2019
saw and loved Ford v Ferrari, a story I already knew well that still felt gripping and tense. visceral, poignant, beautiful to look at. Christian Bale's performance is (unsurprisingly) exceptional. I don't think I've ever seen racing look - or sound - so good in a movie before.

Telluride: Fest opener FORD V. FERRARI is a long, intense, well-acted thriller. Bale, to me, is the standout, but Damon is also great, as always. Good cinematography/score, too. Not sure it’s in the Academy’s lane — more on that in a bit — but I’d imagine it will make money. — Scott Feinberg (@ScottFeinberg) August 30, 2019
