Watch Christian Bale Burn Rubber in ‘Ford v Ferrari’ | Anatomy of a Scene

- How do you go about recreating a 24-hour auto race for a movie? If you’re the director James Mangold, meticulously.
His latest film, “Ford v Ferrari,” takes place in the mid-1960s as the Ford Motor Company is trying to come up with a car that can beat out Ferrari in the Le Mans auto race. The American executives bring on the car designer Carroll Shelby (Matt Damon) and the driver Ken Miles (Christian Bale) to aid in that task.
This scene takes place at the beginning of the 1966 edition of the race as Miles is preparing. Narrating the sequence, Mangold said that he wanted to use the camera following Miles down a hallway and then out to the track as a technique to reveal the spectacle of the race, with overwhelming crowds and a heightened energy.
The race starts the same way Le Mans used to actually begin, with the drivers standing across the track from their cars, then running over and leaping into the vehicles before pulling out. Mangold said the moment, captured in one shot, was a challenge to coordinate but was important to give a sense of authenticity to the scene.
He said he shot as much of the action as possible with real cars and stunt drivers, using visual effects not as much for the racing moments, but more to populate the stands so the production wouldn’t need 20,000 extras each day.

Dear Fast and Furious franchise: this is how you make a car movie.
Well said
I agree with you, the Fast and Furious is like a glorified Burnout video game
@@krigerx.2247 first 3 movies are the best anyways.
@@losangeleslakers1650 I agree with you but after those 3 movies they aren't the best including the upcoming movie
@@krigerx.2247 i agree
You know it's an accurate movie when the Ford's door won't close, lol.

Lol
Lmao
I'm guessing you can build a better prototype racecar to up against the most dominant car of this era?
@@jimmy87587 hahahhaa u got me
So you're telling me this masterpiece made more money than Charlie's angels reboot?
You don't say
MOON Elizabeth Banks wants to know your location.

Don’t cream your pants. Charlie’s Angels bombed because the marketing was terrible and the franchise itself had long since run its course. Nobody asked for or wanted a reboot of it.
@@zatchbell622 The trailer looked bad too

Which is ridiculous, at least for me. The Ford GT looks much better than the Ferrari's in this movie.
Recent Ferrari models look much more slick than older models. There are 2-3 models that passed the age of time (Testarossa is still amazing), but those bubble cars have much more work to do to look like the GT
@@philippebeauchamp2827 wrong
@@rdablock Okay
Mines, “The BLOODY DOOR WONT CLOSE!”
The Ferrari looks way better. The Ford GT always looked like a cheap kit car next to it. Which it was.
My god this was the best movie I have seen in a while, being a person who doesn’t know much about cars this was just something everyone should watch no matter who you are
Yeah Joker and this were the best 2 movies of the year
This and joker were the best, and I have seen endgame and Spider-Man and the other movies
@@DD-bv9jl I have a never heard a more true sentence in my life
You should watch Rush. Also a great movie about cars.
I concur.
He had to grab that “Ford Wrench” to close the door.

Pretty sure it was a hammer.
Ford wrench would have been nice too.
Edit: I meant Mallet, instead of hammer.

Thomcrib saw it this past Thursday night on IMAX. It was really good,you won’t be disappointed!
BMFH-Big Mother F'n Hammer.
@Extraordinary not every one goes on the day of its opening.
Saw it yesterday, great movie
Thomcrib
Saw it in IMAX yesterday. Great Movie 👍
One of the greatest films i have ever seen. Script, Acting, Action sequences, Emotion..&did i mention.. thee cars? 😂. The film was flawless. I put this in a similar league with Apollo 13. Hail to the Director James Mangold and Rob Johnson (vehicle director)
Both movies had very deep and excellent casts.
Agree on everything expect for the CGI.
@Wednesday Is the Leo Beebe character a real person or just someone created for dramatic purposes? Because the character if he was real was a total piece of $hit.
@Wednesday but the movie isn't called 'Ford vs Ferrari'. Its called 'Le Man's 66'. Why is everyone calling it Ford v Ferrari? I need answers😂
@@lukekelly6723 i think in the US it is called ford v ferrari and in europe, it is le mans '66 correct me if im wrong
"impressive. Very nice. Let's see Paul Allens Ford."
"the tasteful thickness of it.....oh my God....it even has a supercharger"

Paul Allens???
Just came from watching this masterpiece
How was it?? Im going L8r
No spoilers, how was it?
@@SuperMageo I'm guessing "masterpiece" is a subtle hint...

@@adelaidemcmillan3176 Wow.
Absolutely amazing. Saw it twice yesterday because the gf got mad at me because I saw it without her lol
Miguel Dominguez thats a keeper
You have a gf with good taste. 👍
The race scenes are reminiscent of the in car shots in Mcqueen’s movie about Le Mans.
But exceptionally better.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Prix_(1966_film) great film. saw it when it came out in cinerama. the imax of its day.
@@RedLP5000S If you're into CGI, I guess it's better, but it's not more authentic looking to real racing, to which Le Mans with Steve McQueen is vastly superior...….
Yes...I think, my own opinion, was that THIS is what McQueen was shooting for, but fell short. Still, loved the racing scenes of Le Mans didn't find much of a plot, but I was a BIG Ford and Porsche fan and in the new Surround Sound....thought I was in Heaven!
This movie and RUSH are masterpiece.. true stories sparks more interest. Excitement, drama and adrenaline... yup I'm lookin at you Fast n Furious.
Rush is the most underrated movie of the 2010s
My fav line in the film:
Enzo Ferrari: “Tell him that he isn’t Henry Ford, he’s Henry Ford ||”
Enzo Ferrari wasn't in the movie
FoodDrinker wut then who was it?
@@crimsonredsky9552 nvm that is him. I thought ferrari was founded in the early 20th century
FoodDrinker oh lol
It was spectacular in IMAX.
Doc McCoy
Yes it was!
I am fockin jealous
How different is it from a normal cinema? I use to watch movies both in IMAX and normal format, never really notice a difference
You should see every movie you can in Imax even if you have to wait a few weeks after release. Even for Endgame release I waited and waited then stormed into Imax to see it Endgame in a near empty. Well worth it.As for this film 9.5/10
@@mezo72271 that depends on the film and what kind of imax theatres you saw it in. The lowest, most common IMAX only has a 2k digital projector I think with not a very big screen. You'll see a huge difference in proper 70mm film projector IMAX screens with big display and insane sound system, especially for films shot on either IMAX cameras at 70mm film or maybe on Panavision 60mm film. They say the resolution for these huge format film is around 15k compared to a regular 4k digital camera.
Brilliant! And as he says you get more emotional when you see the film from the driver's point of view rather than the crowd. Well done James Mangold!
This movie was visually stunning and really made you feel like you went back in time.
James Mangold is one of the finest directors i have ever seen. And the way he talks i just overwhelming. And TBH none of his movies are bad u know like having every movie with an imdb rating average of 7 u must know he is a great one.
Alot of attention to detail went into this Movie to give it a 1966 feel to it, set decor and background autos to the recreated race crew wardrobe and key locations.. Just GO.......
awesome movie James!
Well done, sir. I thoroughly enjoyed the movie. For many of us gearheads, this victory represents a watershed moment in American motorsports. Shelby was a red, white, and blue hotrodder tasked with winning the most challenging race on the planet and it took a cast of like minded racers to buy into his vision and make it a reality. Thank you for bringing their story to the big screen.
As a driver myself I watched this movie on the big screen. keep in mind this is my favorite racing story and my dream car here. While watching the Daytona scene and the Le Man scene I felt as if I was in the car. I distinctly remember having the same look and feel i do when I am driving and after those scenes ended I literally had to take a breath just like real life and when that happened I kinda fell back in to the real world and then i realized I was almost sweating, my heart was beating and I had the largest smile on my face. I looked around at everyone in the room and just kinda sat there for a minute and sat back in my chair. I asked my dad later (he was there with me) and he said that i definitely looked intense, almost kinda stressed from the race. I have never been so immersed in to a movie. When he said how he tried to make it from the point of view of a driver, he did a fantastic job because I am a driver and I felt as if I was in the car and I won the race. It was amazing. I had a not so great season last year with lots of stupid issues that i dealt with so the scene with the door honestly made me feel a little better about my bad luck last season, and although I was not there, it felt great to experience what in my mind was a big moment after a kinda rough season. This is my favorite movie so thank you so much for making it.
This is amazing, you can tell that Mr. Mangold is a huge car guy and racing history buff and that this movie was mad with love by the passion and emotion you can hear in his voice.
Automobile racing during the 1960s-1970s was astonishingly dangerous. It's noteworthy that three great drivers mentioned in this movie as Ken Miles' competitors, Walt Hansgen, Lorenzo Bandini, and Bruce McLaren, were killed during this period. Hansgen and McLaren were both killed while testing cars (in 1966 and 1970, respectively) and Bandini died in a horrifying crash near the end of the 1967 Monaco Grand Prix.
All I can think is “You’re only supposed to close the bloody door.” Fans of the original Italian Job will know what I am talking about.
Chris Miles ah, a man of culture
I wasn't planning on seeing this, but the fact that the director of Logan is working with what is - by all accounts - another brilliant Christian Bale performance got me stoked.
Genius shots, Genius movie. Bravo
the sound of the straight cut gears in the final seconds of the video was great
Ford v Ferrari is the best film I’ve ever seen, and car guy or not, it’s a must see. The acting is phenomenal, the storytelling is amazing, and everything overall is just perfection!
Just watched the movie in Laser IMAX. It has a strong message about perseverance against bureaucracy, corporate politics and having a passion for what you love. Excellent casting and good acting that you feel like you are in that race track feeling the passion and the adrenaline of the driver. On the otherhand, it puts Ford like the other major auto companies that try to crush new comers and take credit for their creativity. It is worth watching movie.
I love how many of the movies we are seeing recently or a throwback to a bygone era where they focused on the script the screenplay and the acting and it is very evident of that fact in this movie. This was an amazing movie with some wonderful actors incredible cinematography and dialogue and well worth seeing more than once at the movie theater.
Hi, I'm from Philippines. I saw this movie and it's outstanding in my eyes.
I’ve never been so excited for a movie in my entire life 👌
James Mangold you made a master piece
I love love love anatomy of a scene!
Don't you have brain cells? Need a shot by shot explanation?
@@michelnormandin8068 seriously? Why so nasty to the guys comment? Jesus 🙄
3:49 beautiful car, beautiful shot.
I must say the shot was amazing! Whole time in the movie that they were racing I had constant goosebumps! Totally burnt every part of the gearhead in me!
If you havent seen this already you should. It's a brilliantly shot film with great direction and really well developed characters with depth. The acting is on point especially from the leads. The score is magnificent and keeps you on the edge. It's a movie that keeps you pondering long after it's over. I hope this review helped and made you appreciate the little things that go unnoticed by the average viewer
"I’m sure you’re well aware, it’s hard to get a movie - an adult-oriented movie with adult themes in it…it’s hard to get these movies made now. We exist in segregated world of movies which are under $30M for adults, and the rest for 13 year olds or streaming,” - James Mangold
Thank you James for believe and for making movies for adults. FvF is full of a great old school movie. Unbelievable!
Excellent! Nicely Done!
3:50 Gotta admit; that Ferrari looks amazing!! Too bad they didn't keep it up through the years!!
Literally in the theater parking lot trying to decide what movie to see. Thanks to this video I'm gonna watch this movie.
Should have won the Oscar for best picture. Perfect movie
My compliments and thanks to the crew who made this film, the scenery from Le Mans was spot on, with the famous Dutray clock (Dutray are local LeMans juwellers) and I think the sotry was great, i specially liked the character that played Henri Ford.
Ken Miles family is sitting at home in USA roughly in the same time of day as in LeMans. It starts at 16:00 local time. LA is -9 hours to France. So it's about 7 am. Not impossible, of course. But a bit weird.
You must not be familiar with Formula One. It's the same here every race weekend!
Ken Miles legend
Las yes, he was a legend
This movie will make you want a manual transmission.
😂😂
Thankfully I have 2 manual trans cars
Car Story real car guys already have one or want one. I grew up with manuals
Not in San Francisco.
Yes one of those 24 speed transmissions like the fast and furious!
Happy to say I have one.
For awhile, I thought Vin Diesel was the one talking 😂
Its an amazing movie. Great deal of thoughts behind every scene. Collectively a very beautifully crafted movie.......
I thought it was a fantastic movie, very well done. The racing action was superb! Bravo!
Imagine the tension build up from the broken door....(and why man love motor racing!)
This is one of my fav scene of the movie, bloody door
This reminds me of John Frankenheimer’s awesome Cinerama racing epic “Grand Prix”. Can’t wait to see it on the big screen!
Just watched it today! The best movie of the year for me!
You & I Thats great to hear! I’m going soon, maybe in Dolby Cinema?
The Cobra - Ferrari Wars would make a great movie. The Cobra Daytona Coupes vs. the Ferrari 250 GTO.
Just like the director aimed to. I felt every moment of this race.
Well not quite the 24 hours. But everything they showed
Christian Bale was amazing. Matt Damon just played himself with a Texan accent imo.
Dangrg ha ha...pretty much.
I really don’t know how else you could play Carroll Shelby though, he wasn’t exuberant or outgoing outside of the track, he was a regular guy who developed tremendous cars off the track
@@slopcrusher3482 correct matt did a great acting job
Good tracking shot.
Was an amazing movie. I watched it with my youngest son, who is crazy about cars and we loved every second of it.
Damon was great as Shelby and Christian Bale can play anyone and literally can do no wrong.
I'm so excited to see this
Pretty funny, I had a Ford Taurus in high school and the drivers-side door would randomly pop open sometimes
svfutbol20 “Built Ford Tough”
TheRedSunglasses It was a 2002, and I got rid of it and bought a laptop and a 1991 Acura Integra. Best decision I ever made, that car was amazing despite having double the miles and was 11 years older lol
The ford looks just as good as the ferrari
Some say the hammer comes as an extra that cost $50 when they sell the GT
I just saw this film with my brother and my son, did not disappoint at all what a great movie!
One of my favorite movies of all time
Ford v Ferrari beated joker , Best Movie of the year - Ford v Ferrari , Best Actor of the year - Christian bale , Best Supporting actor - Matt demon
Very well directed
This. This is a proper racing movie. Would love one about group B one day
Love this film!! Can't wait for a blu-ray release. Please include a GT40 model with a box set.
Yeah good job on the camera angles when ur racing its hard for the average driver to understand the way u drive a race track...I exceptionally like the shot were the car is passing a slower class car and when u turn u drift inside to out side and that camera angle showed the line the arc and how it looks passing a car and how line a criss cross when cars are at different speeds rear engine versus front engine handling,something that makes this race mist difficult the degree of classes and the speed difference....is incredible....but that angle was nice new and rarely seen...
Richard Deasy would like to note that at 2:47 in this clip Christian Bale failed to close the door completely, thus putting himself and that beautiful car at risk, so duly noted.
My husband & I loved your movie. It was terrific.
Ok Christain bale is an amazing actor, he can go from batman to somewhat crazy race driver
After watching half of the film just on CZcams i think i should watch the full movie now
Watching the Steve McQueen’s Le Mans helped and putting you in the action
Fantastic movie!!! Gonna go see it one more time!!!😀😀😀😀😎🙂
Great movie! I love it! Matt Damon and Christian Bale are fabulous! 👍👌👏
Great movie loved every second of it !
Excellent movie@!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!👌💐👍
Rubber mallet for the win!
Thanks, it was a great movie
Finally seen it a couple days ago, great movie. A very interesting story. Ive always been a Ford guy but I do think they did ken miles kinda dirty.
Saw this yesterday. Great movie
I saw that s last night. It's amazing man. It's definitely in the top 5 if the year
Really great movie...I’m not a big race car fan...but it had me on the edge...😁👍
One problem -
Enzo Ferrari NEVER ATTENDED LE MANS OR ANY OTHER RACES - EVER. He sat in his office in Italy and listened to the races on radio.
Knew him personally, did you?
this is a movie and he was included to add drama to the race at lemans
@@PV1230 if you know anything about le mans you'll know it doesn't need to be more dramatic.
The hammer in the last second,, is the best JUGGAD.. 😜
The astonishing thing about the crowd is its got to be the biggest because its all of Europe watching and driving,not just a French only crowd so its huge,everyone comes to play,that can...cars and the best drivers...
Boy OOO Boy , I loved his Movie just lived the moment and crowd was clapping and all at the end of the movie. American Spirt Flying High!!
4:37 BLOODY DOOR WON’T CLOSE
fantastic film
Such a great great movie. Bale should get a nomination. Kind of makes you hate Ford a little though. I had to see what became of Ken’s son. He grew up and eventually became the crew chief for legendary off-road racer Ivan Stewart.
Just saw this movie. It is so good! Go see it now!
I need to watch that again pretty funny....I'm buying this on DVD....when available....I collect.
Just watched 24hr War on Netflix...watch this...it is excellent. All about this rivalry.
Calling it a "beautiful" tradition to run over to your car...
Well thank God for Jacky Ickx who have saved countless lives since then. True hero and a beautiful person
Class winning Porsche 906 rolling by at 0:39....beautiful machine
10/10 film. Love it!
Looks like Graham Hill at the side of Ken, with the boating club helmet colours
they spent so much time making the 427 bullet-proof they forgot to grease the door-latch.
