Ron Howard Has Another Classic

Rating: 10/10 (28 December 2013)

I don't even like Formula 1 and I thought that this was the best movie of 2013, at least of the films I have seen thus far. The two principal actors deserve whatever awards they give out for a profession hardly in need of giving out awards (actors are already rich and famous beyond most people's wildest dreams so why would they need to get prizes?).
The story follows two F1 drivers in the 1976 season, something I remember as F1 was much more popular in the USA back then than it is now. I certainly remember Lauda's horrible accident. The film does a good job of telling the story while developing the two characters through a few memorable scenes. I especially liked the scene where Lauda is picked up hitchhiking.
This is just great filmmaking from start to finish.
