Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 3448870, member: 1414"] More. [B]Ford vs Ferrari[/B]. I loved this. Feels like it was overlooked perhaps. Christian Bale has a stellar turn as an English mechanic and race car driver Ken Miles and Matt Damon is a damned good Carrol Shelby. It’s a wonderful mostly true story of how Ford tried to buy and then beat Ferrari at LeMans. Nice to see Caitriona Balfe outside of Outlander as Ken Miles’ wife. The characters feel very real here, starting with Shelby, who fresh off of winning LeMans himself can no longer race. Then Miles is a struggling mechanic who had given up racing but gets back in and keeps winning. [B]Crooked House[/B]. Another scrolling through streaming service special. Agatha Christie story. Glenn Close is the biggest name in an ensemble cast. Max Irons is very good as a PI asked by the family and the police to investigate the death of a wealthy man. He has a prior relationship and was essentially spying on that mans granddaughter for British Intelligence. She’s a key player naturally and is played by the gorgeous Staphanie Martini. Overall this was a good modern mystery story. Worth a watch. [/QUOTE]
