Adam Driver as Enzo Ferrari in Ferrari
The Big Picture With his first movie in nearly a decade, Michael Mann finally saw his long-gestating Enzo Ferrari biopic race onto screens in December 2023. Ferrari stars Adam Driver in the title role, covering many personal and professional events in Ferrari's life during the summer of 1957. Mann is no stranger to telling true-to-life stories, with heavy research and effort put into a style that promotes an immersive experience.
Release Date December 25, 2023 Director Michael Mann Cast Shailene Woodley , Adam Driver , Sarah Gadon , Penelope Cruz Runtime 130 minutes Michael Mann Uses a Narrow Slice of History to Examine What Drives Enzo Ferrari Biopics that take a cradle-to-grave approach often bite off a bit more than they can chew.Ferrari avoids this problem by narrowing the scope to the summer of 1957.
Aside from Ferrari's family life, the major centerpiece of the film is the 1957 Mille Miglia, a nearly thousand-mile race through town squares and residential streets across Italy. This was the last time the Mille Miglia would run because, as depicted in a heart-stopping, sobering fashion in the film, young Ferrari driver Alfonso de Portago suffered a blow-out crash that claimed the lives of 11 people. De Portago, his navigator, and nine spectators died in this accident.
The film plays with the timeline of events for the sake of raising the stakes of the drama. The major bend in the comparison between Ferrari and the real-world history depicted is that Ferrari was not at serious risk of being bought out or shut down during the time depicted in the film.
