Rush
I’m no fan of Formula One. Nor do I really care about rivalries between Englishmen and Austrians. But I do love features directed by Ron Howard, the acting of Chris Hemsworth and Daniel Brühl, and awesome stories, so I am absolutely thrilled to see Rush this month.
For those who aren’t familiar, the film is about Englishman James Hunt (Hemsworth) and Austrian Niki Lauda (Brühl), whose clashes on the Grand Prix racetrack showed the differences in style between the two, which also held true in their personal lives. Some say their rivalry was the greatest the world ever witnessed, and this film looks to explore that intensity by showing the two drivers push themselves to the breaking point of physical and psychological endurance.
All the footage that we’ve seen so far has gotten me really excited, so if you’re on the fence and happen to somehow have missed all the promotion, you should head on over and give the trailer a watch as soon as possible.
