aikfc Not at all Cockney. Bale is from an area quite close to where Miles was from, Birmingham. The Birmingham ’Brummie’ accent was depicted well by Bale in the film.
“There’s a point at 7,000 RPMs where everything fades. The machine becomes weightless. It disappears. All that’s left, a body moving through space, and time. At 7,000 RPM, that’s where you meet it. That’s where it waits for you.” THE ULTIMATE TRUTH 🤟
That depends. I raced a Ford Pinto back in the 1970s. Some of my friends had 7500 rpm motors in their Pintos. None of those lead sleds ever became weightless.
James Darnell Did those guys hit 7000 revs on high gear ? For me i own a 1.8 corolla 2004 model i hit speed of 170 kph on 4 th gear @ 5400 revs . Still had a gear left . Hence i believe 7000 rpm is a great possibility 😌 The bhp for a car is always at peak rpm For eg : 140 bhp @ 6200 for my corolla Ps : there is no bhp . All engines just produce TORQUE . Vertical motion to rotational motion Ftlb x rpm / 5252= Hp .
Back in the 1970s, we only had four gears. First and second were just for leaving the pits. We raced with third and fourth only. At Road America, they would certainly reach above 7000 rpm on the straights. At Blackhawk Farms Raceway, I believe they would run out of track first. That was 45 years ago. I have no idea what the Miatas rev to now.
@@ContainershipMAN Thanks for your interesting info on HP, torque and revs. Whether you reach 7000 rpm in top gear will depend on HP and wind resistance. Unless you have a lot of HP that kind of revs is only possible in a lower gear.
One of the best part of the movie is when Henry Ford II cries in the GT40. You have to watch it. SPOILERS AHEAD . . . . The way he remembers his father at that moment and keeps repeating "I didn't know" and "I wish he could have felt this". It truly moved me. Amazing scene and story.
@@HugoStiglitz88 I was wondering about that. How did you find out its not based on fact ? And I wonder how many of the cars were real and how many were replicas ?
Saw this movie last night. I was 10 years old and saw the Fords finish 1, 2, 3 at La Mans. So I knew of the story behind the movie and the herculean effort it took to get there. It was wonderful to see the people and personalities that brought them to that. My wife and I very much enjoyed it.
He was good..but top 5 greatest drivers? I don't see it. For funs, in no particular order I think my Top 5 would be: Jim Clark Michèle Mouton Stirling Moss Ari Vatanen ...and shit...can't even decide...too many to choose from...
@@HugoStiglitz88 No I didn't forget about Senna (and that was part of my choose a last one problem, I didn't forget him) but with one spot left on the list, and already having put in several gran prix/f1 drivers, and across all the various motorsports...Stéphane Peterhansel has seven Dakar wins alone. There is also AJ Foyt who raced very successfully across a number of motor sports...same with Mario Andretti .... Ascari, Ickx, Graham Hill...if we are going to opt to stick another F1 driver on there. The problem with picking the greatest of anything is, at some point there just isn't one but rather a small pool of fairly equally phenomenal to choose from. But yeah, Senna...just that 84 drive at Monaco alone is almost enough to catapult him up there.
Watched this twice on theater. Gotta say it's the best movie this year. I really love how it given passion, no matter to the characters, or to the film itself. Especially the film score is helping the mood a lot, the cinematography is amazing not to take your eyes off.
The first great USA movie I have seen in many years. No computer graphics, just real live racing. Never looked at my watch, this thing moved all the time, BRAVO!! Mr. Mangold and cast!
I watched this masterpiece of a movie 3 times today. It’s not the story it’s the exceptional performances by these incredible actors. The supporting cast were also wonderful. Bale and Damon impressed me. It’s a must watch.
What a great movie if you're into classic cars! You'll know who your fellow car guys in the theatre are by the audience reactions when they show the blue Cobra, the inside of the Shelby American hangar, and when Ken Miles says he'd prefer a Chevy Chevelle. Ken Miles- what a great racer and mechanic.
Saw it today and that's exactly the case, laughs at the Plymouth Studebaker line, winces when he starts hammer the bootlid on the Cobra, gasps when the Ferraris crashed. And a couple of inward groans from me seeing some small mistakes in the background.
I have now watched this movie more than Star Wars. I love the story, the historical influence on American car building, and the beautiful cars that defined an epic era of auto engineering. 230 mph? In the 1960"s? Unbelievable!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love this movie so much I've seen it twice already. Matt Damon and Christian Bale did an amazing job. Just wish I had the money to buy a replica Cobra.
James Mangold gave a great IndieWire interview about the film and Bale, one great quote: '' I felt the role was close to Bale [who starred in Mangold’s "3:10 to Yuma"], and prayed he would do it. He’s a model to me of artistic perseverance and flexibility. He'll text you with thoughts and free associations about the character. It's all incredible food. He’s a wonderful father, loving husband, great friend. He’s not interested in being famous. He drives a pickup truck, he’s grounded in the world, he raced motorcycles but had to stop when he got hurt, when he had kids. There are so many parts of Ken in Christian, who’s a perfectionist. He’s trying to achieve something for himself. It's magical to direct someone like that because they draw you into their own idealism. You feel that energy; it permeates the set. ''
Christian Bales West Midlands accent was on point - not overly theatrical brummie but just enough to know Ken Miles was from the West Midlands. Also his use of yampy and “going round the Wrekin” were nice touches!
This movie took first place in my all time top. Amazingly executed and bale as ken with Matt Damon as Shelby has told this magnificent story beautifully. Absolutely amazing 👌
When I saw the film, I was surprised Christian Bale's line wasn't: 'Every gear change, every braking point, every corner.' All speech writers are familiar with the power of three. Great film. will go and see it again for sure.
I just wanna know what it's like being surrounded by that many classic GT40's, god those are some gorgeous cars, the movie gave me chills during the racing cinematic's!
Great sounds and effects like it feels you are there on the track cheering for the Ford brand coz you didn't know that you are already hooked up to the story, on how they badly wanted the success and victory. Excellent movie on how they portrayed the glimpse of race car history to people like me who is an avid fan of racing cars too...Thank you for making us audience entertained.. Yeah!!!!!
After watchin the movie i took my 2003 corolla 1.8 ltr baby on the road for 11 km . I hit speed of 130 kph and still she is steady as a rock . I shifted gears at 4200 revs, i was amazed that a 17 yr old car which has ran 95000km on taco Is still able to give the same performance as the day when she was born.. I believe Every car is a possibility ... The same goes for every human being
As a child at 7 In 1967 I had a matchbox toy maybe it was a Hot wheels toy of the Ford GT40. I used to examine that toy for hours thinking that it was the most beautiful car imaginable. It was better than a spaceship because I knew it existed out there and men drove it.
Totally agree with Christian’s thought about what kind of man races to speeds of 230 mph not fully knowing if he can stop or not. Exceptional film that I plan on seeing again.
I saw the film last night. Believe the hype, and see it on the big screen! The sights and sounds alone are worth the ticket price. There is also a great historically accurate story portrayed by actors that breathe new life into these legends of racing. It's more than Ford. It's America winning, and what it took to get there.
What it took was a car built and designed in Woking, UK (The GT40 is a Ford funded Lola Mk 6 with a Shelby tuned Ford engine), with drive teams consisting of mostly Brits, Kiwis (one of whom set up a now famous race team/ supercar company in the same spot the GT40 was built: Bruce McLaren) and Aussies across the 3 cars, as experience of the race was essential to winning it...this film misses quite a lot of that out, but not all admittedly. Not diluting your sentiment, or denying Fords and thus America's influence in the race or the global motor racing scene, just as long as the established British race crews and chassis that were purloined to do it aren't discounted!
To watch this film... This film is "fast" and "furious". The other film series you speak of is about import car tuning initially. Then incorporates storyline that has by now left the original soul of the film behind. Just another action series. Ford v Ferrari is history. There would be no "fast and furious" culture without Mr. Shelby. He defined "aftermarket tuning".
I went 125 mph on a BMW R1200 once on a highway in the Arizona desert. The white line turned solid and as hard as I tried, I could not see outside a small cone of tunnel vision. Of course the 1200 cc’s were just getting into their stride but I covered a couple miles in just a minute. When I let off the throttle and slowed down, it felt like re-entering the atmosphere, or the world per se. my heart was pounding and my eyeballs throbbed from the stress, adrenaline and concentration. I can’t imagine what 200 or even 150mph feels like.
It was a thrilling time of a change in motorsport. Still no electric fuel injection, just carbureted engines but a good aerodynamic was more and more important. The first steps to the modern race cars of today. Great movie!
@Alan Drobnak - I was more worried about his stature - Shelby was taller. Didn't have any affect, you thought you were watching the Snake himself! Damon did a great job.
Damon was a poor choice for Shelby. Especially his accent which was on and off. The movie would have been better with someone else but it was still great.
This is in my top 5 movie list. Just watch the 9th time last night. My favorite part is at the end of the race, Enzo Ferrari took his hat off to Ken Miles and showed the respect he deserved. I think the movie didn't portray Enzo a villain as some people say.
PEOPLE .. it doesn't matter if you are a petrolhead or not … this is a story of human perseverance, humbleness, pride and proud, it is a very human touching movie. And The kid will …. (don't spoil boy !!) Probably you will even cry for some moments. Extraordinary story. Very touching. On a personal note , my kid and I love cars and HE IS a ford lover and has his first GT mustang , his first own car , so this movie was like WOWWW !!!! take your dad and your kid too. If your kid has over 6 months old, take it ! Very nice movie. Didn't expect this, honestly …
There is a fierce competition among racers to win. This film captures that spirit. Car lovers relate to the commitment and work involved in building a great machine. The director really captured the intensity of the LeMans challenge.
Bale and Damon are both as good as each other in this because they understand the respect the real character's had for each other. And the movie subverts the stereotype 's, the English guy is the temperamental nutter and the Murican is the calm guy with the good plan!.....Loved this film....
One of the best movies, I have ever seen. I was seriously surprised to see only 8 people including my self, and my girlfriend in the theater! This was back on December 15th.
1. Christian Bale is British. He's from Wales and he was raised in England. 2. Everyone has an accent. Why on earth do Americans think that they don't? 3. He has an *English* accent. There's no "the" British accent.
“Feel every gearshift”. Great movie but can someone please make a movie where the shifts are true to life? Reminds me of Bullit and the infinite shifting. Other than that, small criticism, it was a great movie. IMHO.
The movie is awesome, Bale should get a nomination
*win
yes, and so should that kid
The acting, coordination, and dialogue was great and that's the reason it got 91% on Rotten Tomatoes.
I think he was just nominated for a golden globe.
Once again the academy have a stick up their.....
Bale changed himself, both physically and mentally, so much for each movie he played, that I'm confused with his actual accent.
From batman to cockney brits
I think Ken was from Birmingham, UK. Would have been funny if he spoke in a thick 'brummie' accent in the film.
Man1nTh3Mirr0r same
Man1nTh3Mirr0r hes a method actor and hes from the uk
aikfc Not at all Cockney. Bale is from an area quite close to where Miles was from, Birmingham. The Birmingham ’Brummie’ accent was depicted well by Bale in the film.
"They were REALLY OLD, they were both in their 40s".
* Cries in 40 year old...
Old for a racing driver at least. Most retire by the time theyre 50
Heard that too. Surprised Matt said that since he's in his 40s.
For drivers, that's pretty old.
Víctor F. Amaya most drivers are in their early 20s
for racing drivers, not human beings :)

I'm sooo glad the Bale plays Ken Miles. Miles was probably in the top 5 greatest drivers to have raced.

Jim Clark
Michèle Mouton

Thanks for sharing that!!
"It's more than a race movie!" Looking at that rear arch of that Blue 40, its a porn movie. They just exchanged flesh for metal.

The movie was fantastic, go see it before it leaves theaters so you get the whole experience.
The actor who plays Miles is a dead ringer for the man himself.
Ah yes. Batman

How do you not know Christian Bale’s name
Rog5446 the actor? Are you from earth?

4 stars to film because shelby didnt say “MY NAME IS CAROLL SHELBY AND PERFOMANCE IS MY BUISNESS”
Yeahh, Matt Damon could have said it just before the credits roll in an unrelated scene!
Probably because they know how comically ridiculous it'd sound with that no talent Damon saying it
And to make that worse, they had the perfect opportunity to! Biggest flaw in a great movie :P

i will be wathching it every couple years for the rest of my life
After watchin the movie i took my 2003 corolla 1.8 ltr baby on the road for 11 km . I hit speed of 130 kph and still she is steady as a rock . I shifted gears at 4200 revs, i was amazed that a 17 yr old car which has ran 95000km on taco
Is still able to give the same performance as the day when she was born..
I believe Every car is a possibility ...
The same goes for every human being
230 miles per hour is 370 kilometers per hour so you're almost halfway there. Well, perhaps a bit better than a third.
AMAZING movie! Saw it before opening night and i want to see it again!
James May can proudly says "my ass have been sitting in the GT40 before Matt Damon and Christian Bale was casted"
"My ass have..." His ass is plural? That's interesting...

Came here right after watching the movie, it’s great!
I've go this on DVD . It's outstanding . And casting Bale and Damon was inspired . These guys are inspired . Brilliant . I've done 165 mph

This movie was great! What an important story to tell. This was so big for us back then and still today. I'm so glad they made this movie .

For this to be filmed,Bale had to go to driving school. True fact!
To bad Damon didn't adopt Shelby's hairstyle for the movie. Would have made him a little more believable. Otherwise I'm looking forward to the film

Damon was a poor choice for Shelby. Especially his accent which was on and off. The movie would have been better with someone else but it was still great.
They probably thought about giving Damon a Shelby "perm" but it would have made the audience laugh and undermine the story.
He tried lol they permed his hair but it didn't look right so he kept a normal haircut
Matt D did an awesome job! Sure, he doesn't look like Shelby, but if you watch this movie, Matt D still pulls it off. That's what good actors do
absolutely incredible film
This is in my top 5 movie list. Just watch the 9th time last night. My favorite part is at the end of the race, Enzo Ferrari took his hat off to Ken Miles and showed the respect he deserved.

This movie was so good like dear god... other than trying to pass off Daytona as California it was really, REALLY good.
PEOPLE .. it doesn't matter if you are a petrolhead or not … this is a story of human perseverance, humbleness, pride and proud, it is a very human touching movie. And The kid will …. (don't spoil boy !!) Probably you will even cry for some moments. Extraordinary story. Very touching. On a personal note , my kid and I love cars and HE IS a ford lover and has his first GT mustang , his first own car , so this movie was like WOWWW !!!! take your dad and your kid too. If your kid has over 6 months old, take it ! Very nice movie. Didn't expect this, honestly …
There is a fierce competition among racers to win. This film captures that spirit. Car lovers relate to the commitment and work involved in building a great machine. The director really captured the intensity of the LeMans challenge.
Like Dale Earnhardt said, Second place is just the first loser.
Bale and Damon are both as good as each other in this because they understand the respect the real character's had for each other. And the movie subverts the stereotype 's, the English guy is the temperamental nutter and the Murican is the calm guy with the good plan!.....Loved this film....
One of the best movies, I have ever seen. I was seriously surprised to see only 8 people including my self, and my girlfriend in the theater! This was back on December 15th.
I was born ready Mr Shelby. Hit it!
Haha
That's why he shit his pants :D
The best movie ever seen
A Classic
he has an accent in his interviews too... Bale takes method acting to another level.
Yes. Best american actor ever. His british accent is sublime.
@Jose Hercules meza ( ͡◉ ͜ʖ ͡◉)
1. Christian Bale is British. He's from Wales and he was raised in England.
2. Everyone has an accent. Why on earth do Americans think that they don't?
3. He has an *English* accent. There's no "the" British accent.
Bale is Awesome!!
The Daytona Race is at Auto Club Motor Speedway
I think I'll go see this on Friday and perhaps go to the Shelby Museum in Boulder on Saturday!
A must see movie. loved it.
You have to admire those drivers who sat on 210 plus MPH down the straight for 24 hrs on 1960, s technology braking systems. Balls of steel
“Feel every gearshift”.
Great movie but can someone please make a movie where the shifts are true to life? Reminds me of Bullit and the infinite shifting.
Other than that, small criticism, it was a great movie. IMHO.
