Ford v Ferrari
New Books Network 2023
What does it mean to be happy? Why do movies have such a hard time dramatizing genuine adult friendships? And why is Mike so adamant against seeing movies like Tetris or Air? Join the guys for a conversation about Ford v Ferrari, James Mangold's 2019 portrait of the artists as co-creators of something beautiful. Project managers' lack of imagination, the reason why we chase what some call a "state of flow," and the study of positive psychology all come into the discussion. So get it up to 7,000 RPMS and give it a listen!
A. J. Baime's Go Like Hell tells the story of the Le Mans race that makes the centerpiece of the film. You can find it here.
