This movie is better than entire Fast & Furious franchise. It touched my heart!
FnF is a stunts and action franchise.
FvF is a true event and actual racing
@@CaptainFALKEN fnf was not a car stunt franchise. Suppose to be about racing and cars and hiests
Fast & Furious is all about family wdym 😂
@@MohammadAliKhalil virgin
@@CaptainFALKEN Relax Captain Falcon and nice response, how old are you 12? 🤣
We need a lot more car movies like this...
Spitting Facts there
Hell yeah! This is a badass movie!
You know I initially watched it after knowing the story since I was a kid and left feeling like they didn't do the story justice. Then I started talking to non-car people who really liked it and I've done a 180. Glad to have the history of these cars be passed on... the stories and cars weren't kep't around for that long without a reason.
Start driving, you’ll live your own movie.
@@patrickbunino5591 And most likely realize just how corny this movie is.
Ken Miles is way too under rated. Guy is a legend beyond many. It's unfortunate what Ford did to him. Guy deserves much more.
this is a movie ... and not particularly accurate
@@snoopythedog3266 but it wasn't much less worse irl
@@hunterxsimple3821 yes it was
@@snoopythedog3266 quick fact check on the movie and you will see it is like 90% accurate, which was quite a big deal
@@QuanTran-bm2vp aaaah more like selective angling in the movie ie showing half what happened to suit the story they wanted to portray.
My Dad was 16 when this race happened, and we went to see this movie in the theater about a year before he passed. He told me he listened to this race with some pals on a shortwave radio here in the states and they were locked into it the whole time. The local Ford dealership had gave hundreds of those portable radios away for free just for the specific purpose of listening to the race wherever you were because they didn't know if the local radio station would cover the whole 24 hours. The dealership name was stamped on the radios and he swears he still had it somewhere, I never found it. He loved this movie but hated the way they made out just that one guy as the enemy of Miles. Love you, Dad.
Not only was Ken Miles a racer, he was a father and a real hero in the hearts and minds of every one. A true inspiration for us all!
He also EARNED opponent's respect which none of the OTHER racers did❤
@@llllliiiiilll667 That's a good point :-)
@@llllliiiiilll667 no! In real event that's not happened
@@llllliiiiilll667 then you must be saw him in real life 😂
@@robbiddlecombe8392 please don't bring honesty and common sense into this chat!
“If you’re going to push a piece of machinery to its limit, you have to have some idea of where that limit is.” Sage words, from a natural born driver… 😎
Ford exactly knew where the limit is. They knew when they first rolled out gt40 none of the cars would finish first race. And they knew it would be the gearbox that fails and not the tires - although they brought wrong ones.
Enzo Ferrari's nod is Ken's Greatest gift
at the end of Le Man, The Media and reporters were going to tear into ford for robbing their star driver, But he asked them “Be careful what you say to these people, they’ve been awfully good to me” so they didn’t.
It's one of those rare movies which you just don't watch, you actually feel it.
Being an engineer I can totally feel what Ken was referring to "know the limits". Yes ofcourse the machine will not let you down even if you push it beyond the limit because it was designed to be with you all the time, It's like having a person on your side who will do anything for you, even if you demand a death of her. But if you are able to understand that even this engineering masterpiece has also its limits, respect it, don't hurt it. That's the exact moment you can call yourself "a driver ".
An excellent video btw.
Obviously you're either talking of not cars, or old cars. These days cars are desidgned to betray you in order to steal all money from your pocket.
@@SparrowNoblePoland 😂😂
@@SparrowNoblePoland Which cars?
You only understand a car after you’ve taken it apart, reassembled it and put better parts on it. By the time you’ve done that you’ve changed the car by improving and increasing its limits
Man! You’re really good with words!
You did an amazing job editing this. Almost made me tear up.
Agreed. Well done. Well done.
scrap the almost.
Absolutely. ❤️
Thanks you everyone!
yeah amazing edit no nonsense
“No promised me the drive not the win” perhaps the best movie quotes of all time. Nothing is ever promised in life but enjoy what you have.
Christian Bale became Ken Miles and Matt Damon became Carroll Shelby, there representations of these two historic individuals was nothing short of Epic!
The perfect tribute to Ken miles. Still remembers the day of watching this masterpiece in theatre.
You could say, "They dont make movies like this any more!", except its a recent release so they do. I just wish they would make them more often!
not really a recent release its been out for some time now. just over 2 years of release
Racing movie where half the racing was CGI, may as well be 2 Fast 2 Furious at that point.
@@ovtroll1199 you're silly. 2 years is recent when it comes to movie history.
@@jxckrabbit Good luck finding anyone to film any car movie nowadays with practical effects. This movie was spectacular from the sound design alone.
@@Pwndaz considering they were using 10mil + Le Mans cars, it wouldve never been practical. Just saying, majority of the movie was cgi while people are having their breath taken away by the "stunt driving".
At least the sound design team on this knew the proper amount of gears and engine noises that belonged each car
this was such a great movie. everytime i watch the racing scene's i get chills. We need more movies like this, specially when it comes to cars
This is a terrible movie. If you want to see a good movie about Le Mans, watch the 1971 Steve McQueen film "Le Mans".
@@gurnblanston3210 shut up, this was objectively good, just because you liked that movie more does not make this bad
@@robbiddlecombe8392 Ever heard of "based on a true story" before?
@@robbiddlecombe8392 -- the movie Ford vs Ferrari was simplified, because otherwise it would be a mini-series, not a movie. They could have done either.
They did a good job with the cast, the story and the script for Ford vs Ferrari. I mean they are telling the story of a chain of events the was over the course of several years (or even a decade). The major parts were correct. The essence was there... all of the important main bits.
have you never heard real cars or been on a racetrack?
Can you imagine someone asking Usane Bolt to slow down to allow his mates to do a photo finish.
EVERYONE KNOWS IT WAS KEN MILES WHO WON THIS RACE 💯🏎️🙏
Damn right Ken won that race nobody could catch him
Yet they robbed him...😐
@@uchendugilead2430 yeah but it was a certain hollow victory for Bruce Mclaren, anyone with an ounce of integrity and honour can immediately see the Truth, throughout history many people In suites have often thought that they can manipulate life, but the light of truth is none negotiable and plain to see for anyone who has eyes 🙏
Yeah,I didn't like that part,when he slowed down and waited for the Ford racers,he differently got robbed at the end 🤦♂️🤬,Ken miles should've of won that !!!!
Yea this Is true,but i don't know why ford stop doing car like these...
My God what a beautiful they was...
Other thing is why people don't remember this and all people know Ferrari..
This story is uncorrect because next 5 years, after ken and Carroll collaboration and union ford won 5 years Le Mans without loosing..
This is one of the best car films ever
@@okayMrN okay will do!!
@@okayMrN I love rush. That movie and ford v Ferrari are my 2 fav car movies
Ken Miles deserved that Le Mans win
Being a racer my self, I can tell ya....this was one helluva heart breaking movie....God Bless Ken Miles !!
+1
The scene of him thinking about slowing down. Looking in the mirrors….without a word, Christian shoes the world what a legend he is. Masterclass in acting right there. You know, you feel every taught thats going through his mind
I am so happy that Ken Miles got his recognition. I didn't know all that. He was a man with his A$$ on fire. God speed Ken.
That's the irony. Ken DIDN'T win the race, but he became TREMENDOUSLY more famous because of the movie! What an absolutely PURE Racer. A man to idolize!
Gave me Goosebumps all the way through. We need more racing movies like this.
Thank you!
This is one of those movies that I could watch a thousand times and never get tired of.
They called him the unsung hero of the GT40, he ain’t unsung no more.
Possibly one of the best movie of all times. Whether you like cars or not.
Settle down LOL.
Definitely not the best film and this is coming from a car enthusiast. The dialogue kind of put me off with this film especially with lee iacocca character
if you like cars you will hate this movie
@@gunsup0331 Owned 5 Ferraris, a Ford GTX1 and a Superformance Cobra so far. Pretty sure I love cars 🍿🤫😂
@@AutobahnVault the film did not use the blessed ferrari sounds nor the venerable gt40 sounds. ive revved the gt 500 myself. its just some car. its not. THAT. the gut feeling you know as a ferrari man. a porsche man. a bmw man. the feeling you get when you hear with your ear and then feel with your gut. IFYYK
Kenny Miles was a badass race car diver.
@@robbiddlecombe8392 actually he was the guy in the movie and more, Ken Miles had been minutes ahead of the other cars, but due to self-serving instructions from Ford, combined with a technicality, Miles was given second place instead of first. Ford management had indeed instructed him to slow down so that all three of their cars could cross the finish line together.
@@gtrix3240 This is why I don't drive a Ford
This is THE BEST EDIT i've ever seen for this movie 👏
Thanks you!
One of the greatest car films
At some point, driving is a meditation.
We Love you Ken Miles.
Hell of a story, hell of a movie! The uninitiated may never really understand but for those who do this film pushes all the right buttons!
The movie is largely fictional.
@@gurnblanston3210 I know, it's a dramatization not meant to be a documentary, but it is still very very good!
@@gurnblanston3210 When Miles tells his son about the perfect lap, the limit of performance, feeling the car..... I get goosebumps every time!
Miles was a madman and should be an inspiration to all of us. Especially now. Dude was just killer. Perfect lap.
Not a madman but out and out racer who could get the best out of his car
Let us also appreciate how much Ken's son is invested in the race and his respect for his dad after the perfect lap 5:19. Brings tear in my eye to see a son respecting his dad from deep within when a lot of us don't believe in our loved ones, though out of geniune care.
The perfect lap time was set by Dan Gurney early in the morning. Not long after that the cars engine blew up . That is why the 2 & 1 car were told to EZE at 11 am . The 2 car did the 1 car didn’t . That’s a fact. Shelby entered all 3 cars, not one as shown in the film.
Perfect ❤
As a racer and as a fan this movie was both fantastic and heart breaking at the same time.
This is Hollywood which all 90s kids have gorwn up watching...without any Sigi or Gizmo just pure simple story telling and acting
These Types of movies r to be made more ❤❤❤❤
Ken Miles was the best that ever was and history should have proved that fact. Best driver EVER. RESPECT
Are you *serious* ??
Seek help.
@@McLarenMercedes Seek Therapy
Absolutely love this edit. The movie is a love letter to Shelby and the history of the GT40. This video is a love letter to that movie... and it's perfect.
" You promised me the drive, not the win " . This just encapsulates the true essence of racing. It's not about who's won, It's about who's faster, more elegant and fluidlike in the corner
In that scene, when he looks back and sees literally nobody behind him driving to the finish. He knew...he knew he won...that was vindication enough. I'm glad the story was told. We all know now.
Car guy here; born 1951. This was my era. Loved the film! This is an awesome edit. Much respect! Thank you!
I'm a grown man, a regular tough I'd like to think, but this movie made me cry like a little baby at the end. Fantastic film.
Ford Vs Ferrari is currently an underrated movie, and will be recognized as one of the best in the coming years.
@@robbiddlecombe8392 Years before this movie was produced I’d read all of the books written by those closely involved with this program. I am quite aware of the artistic license taken.
I was a teenager during all of this even remember seeing that terrible ending at Le Mans, I could not wait to get my Sports Car magazines each month to read about those races
woah!!!
What really happened there?
@@rizkyantoni3948 McLaren started like 6 feet farther back and sense they crossed the line at the same time, McLaren technically drove 6 feet farther that made him the winner.
I love how he puts his sunglasses on like he's on a Sunday drive cool as hell
Mr. Bale did a hell of job as Batman and even a better job as Ken Miles!
One of the greatest englishmen to race.
This is one hell of a movie. Gotta have more like it.
Carol Shelby knew and respected Ken miles enough to stake his company legacy on a wager to win the Daytona. Whaaàt.! Character respect and ultimate integrity is what makes us men. Thank you for the content. Ken miles and Carol Shelby relationship deserves it's own movie. I would bet These boys started in the back woods of Texas... Lol
It's high time for the prequel movie: When Shelby American built the Daytona Cobra Coupes for the '64 & '65 FIA racing season along with the Cobra Roadsters and raced in the US and Europe, thus kicking Ferrari's ass in 1965. Those incredible hot rodders from Los Angeles won the World Manufacturers Championship!
Why not the Aston Martin DBR1 story?
I agree! That and/or the GT350. They could bring back Bale as Ken, driving the first competition GT350 and winning its first race.
And prequel to the prequel: When Enzo Ferrari left Alfa Romeo to beat it.
@@negativeone7151 Earlier; Louis Zborowski funding Aston while putting explosive charges into sculptures to astonish his guests and organizing street races in open traffic in Great Britain.
@@robbiddlecombe8392 I shall give you advice based on my own misfortune; If you can't afford something, you should never care a toss about it.
I don't know how 6:39 passed in this video. I remember watching this movie in Pune, IN. I will never forget the greatest experience of watching this cinema. This is called a perfect action cinema with impeccable screenplay,editing and an extraordinary music score. Hats of to the makers of FORD vs FERRARI. Kudos to you too THE MEMOMORY LANE!!!!
Thanks you!
I don't care how fancy these electric cars get and how cool they look their is nothing and I mean nothing that will ever replace the feel and drive of driving a manual sports car. Period end of discussion! Nothing like shifting through the gears and feeling every vibration of the engine. That's driving!
100%
There’s nothing like hand cranking a car and having to retard the spark. That’s driving! You’ve drawn an arbitrary line to what “driving” is based solely on your experience from a nostalgic standpoint.
@@AveragePicker No that’s not driving that’s called starting
@@5ohevan440 And single speed gearboxes.
EV’s are shit! I hate them! I don’t give a rats ass how quick they are; stupid boring cars!!!!!!
Watch the donut media up to speed video about Ken Miles, dudes a straight up legend
Even if they make 100 fast and furious family movies, all of them cannot beat this movie, even when combined. A fantastic piece of movie.
All of a sudden this film has aged, yesterday Ferrari won the centenary edition of the 24 hours of Le Mans in the most convincing fashion. The Prancing Horse team were fast, consistent and didn't make a mistake, unlike Toyota and Porsche.
What a great movie and a great story. The best part is that most of it is based on a true story. God bless Ken Miles and Carroll Shelby - harkens back to a time when men were men...
Lol. Carroll Shelby was nothing more than a con man. Do you know nothing of the real story?
We need more movies like this. Imagine a movie about Richard petty or ayrton senna
There was a film about Senna I think so, go check it out
Conveniently the movie about senna is called "Senna"
@@wenisinvietnam yes but thats more of a documentary
IVAN STEWART. 24 hrs of Baja 1000.
Toyota T100 trophy truck. Iron Man Stewart
They would NEVER do a good job portraying Senna, or his life.
After watching Days of Thunder, I know 100% that ANOTHER movie about the world's more backwards ass racing event (NASCAR) is NEVER needed.
A brief moment where nothing else matters and all your senses tune onto your vehicle and the road. It’s a magical moment.
Have you ever witnessed perfection?
Everybody knows the original winner is Ken Miles ❤❤
Who else here chopping onions while watching this video.
Soulful edit brother ❤
Such an underrated and amazing movie. I feel sad for Ken Miles what he went through.
I can’t race a high horse power monster to the max on a race track, but I can sure as hell race to deliver your pizza in perfect timing. I love to play this music when delivering in my shitbox but man she doesn’t give up on giving me an extra smile to the mile every time. Stay safe kings and may the legend of Ken Miles live on.
This so deserves a thumbs up.
We need more people who have raced getting involved with the filming so that it looks real.
Half of it was CGI, no movie maker nowadays is gonna make "real" theyre gonna make what sells and keeps costs down
@@jxckrabbit getting them to do it in a sim race then get the VFX guys to recreate it would be pretty good.
@@10acious32 id be curious if that would look as well as the movie did, but would be really cool to see for sure
Shoutout to all the unknown heroes that don't get the credit like they deserve such as Ken Miles.
I've been in racing for many years, and I love that this movie also shows the politics and financial structures behind the sport. It can be harder to run a well funded factory backed team than being a privateer. Nobody believes it, untill you learn this story and the many like it. This is one of the few realistic racing movies.
I fully agree
Damn, the editing made me feel all the different emotion i felt when I saw the movie the first time. Thanks mate.🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Thanks you!
Sometimes they don’t get out of the car…
One of the better movies I have ever seen...
Made me tear up again. That was indeed, one hell of a drive! Bless his soul.
I was a first responder for nearly 20 years. I can say, that cars you thrashed with full throttle acceleration, hard braking and endless tire limit cornering time and time again, became something special. You would run to your vehicle, fire it up and drive fucken hard, to your limit, again and again. Cars that stood up to that punishment became like a friend, someone you could rely on. And cars that didnt, you never stepped into them again, gone. I know this is just a movie but I see that in this car, its a real thing, you ask more of it and it keeps giving.
What a piece of Art! This movie touches your heart.
One of the best movies of all time…
This does put a wide smile on my face :]
He's the only person in the history of the race to have completed a hat trick. No one has done it since, I don't think I'll see it in my lifetime.
Amazing!
The emotion, the chemistry, just amazing.
The perfect lap im still looking for it good luck drivers
this was beautifully edited....captured the essense of the movie without compromising its integrity, and yes, it was a hell of a drive.
This movie had me crying and screaming all in one . RIP Mr Miles one of the greatest to do it
Excellent edit, thank you
Your video is extremely professionally produced
You have taken great scenes from this movie and provided the viewer with edge of seat storytelling
Quite marvellous!
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve come back to your distilled essence, not just of the film, but the soul of everyone who’s strived for that “perfect lap”, and realizing the only trophy that matters is that elusive moment of being There.
Thank you so much for doing this. And yes, I’ll be back…
I have seen this film countless times and this edit made me feel like I was watching it again for the first time. Fantastic stuff man, great edit!
What a montage !!!! Loved it.... Captured the very essence of the movie !
Thank you!
Perfect brilliant BRAVO nice video and I can certainly say that this video is “Hell of a Drive”
All the actors do an amazing job filling out their characters. Great story telling. This is a really good movie.
Love ken miles. We need more people like him
One of the best edits I've ever seen...loved it..James Mangold in his best
Thank you!
Hands down best racing movie ever and my personal most favorite movie.
Ken Miles is hell of a driver 🇬🇧 🇺🇸 and soldier of Uk 🇬🇧 full respect ✊ to ken Miles salute 🍻
My God! This is one of the most inspirational videos I've ever seen. Your format and use of text, your perfect editing of the essential parts of the story, SUPERB!!! You should be editing professionally. I'm in tears over here!
I fully agree
Great tribute there, well done !
Thanks you!
Thanks you!
MUSIC, MELODY AND SCENES IN PERFECT HARMONY
Thanks!
one of my fav movies of all time, thank u for covering all the movie parts so nicely
This movie shows you, how actually you're feeling the race
I hope we get a movie on Peter Brock, man was the greatest Tour driver to ever live.
Thanks for making this. It's beautiful.
The best motorsport car movie I've ever seen. Amazing storytelling
"Ken Miles" reminds me alot of "Paul Walker" they both died doing the things they loved. RIP
Thank You for A Making A Awesome Video
