Saw it last weekend and he was fantastic. He doesn't really look like Enzo, but his performance was incredibly natural, and I felt like he really nailed it.
I feel the other way around, he ruined both "The Last Duel" and "Star Wars" for me. The latter was ruined anyway by the script and direction, but "The Last Duel" could have been a much better movie with someone else playing Jacques.
I sat in the movie theater for two hours watching this movie and didn't know it was Adam Driver. I'm glad I didn't because then all I would see is the actor.
Also when he says "this is 1957 so it's pre-psychology, so they came up with their own coping mechanisms" - that's a perfect way to describe why I love movies about that time period, because it's interesting to imagine what it was like to live in a time where people told you to "rug some dirt in it" when you were going through hell in your mind. Some stories it's overwhelming how angry it makes me when I'm feeling empathy for a character going through a horrible time, and sometimes it's fun because no one knows or understands what some characters are really thinking (so they can get away with crimes and whatnot) and sometimes it shows how people could have loved so much deeper, because they're the only two in the whole world that understand each other.
Lindsey Davis- very good interview, great questions. It’s obvious Adam is a very focused actor and cares about his craft and the character he plays. Immediately I felt I was watching Enzo himself and not an actor playing a part.
I really thought the lead actor in this movie was an Italian man in his 50s. I was so suprised to read after it that he was the guy was Star Wars, American and in his early 40s!
The Ford vs Ferrari movie describes Enzo very well as Adam is. He nearly drove the company into bankruptcy when Ford came along with a bailout that he turned down. This led to the rise of Carroll Shelby arguably an equally great race car and car builder, then Ford beating them at LeMans.
I found it interesting how differently both movies depicted that series of events. Ford V Ferrari simply portrayed it as Enzo snubbing Ford in the midst of negotiations, while Ferrari implied that Enzo initiated the Ford rumors through a false news story to light a fire under Fiat to get them to the table so they could "keep it Italian". Would be interested to hear how that all really went down.
Now an American actor explains who Enzo Ferrari was, perhaps before talking you should know who and what you are talking about, there is a sidereal distance between the real Enzo and the one played by him
I do not care for this guy. Self absorbed and far from ca convincing Enzo Ferrari. Aside from that, too much conjecture in the film and lots of misinformation.
How is that suddenly America is so interested in Iconic Italian people and culture? In reverse it would be bizarre, think of how absurd it would be if we Italian would do films about Ford or steel barons or the founder of Vogue. Maybe the interest for Hollywood is just to spina narrative.
Truthfully it was the worst movie I ever seen. The storyline was terrible alot missing parts of Enzo life was missing and Penelope Cruz was trying too hard just out right poor acting. Michael Mann should be ashamed of himself.

The only thing Adam has in common with Enzo is a big nose Please stop casting this non Italian to play Italians I have plenty of cousins that could play the part …. And that are actually Italian
So, only people who fit the profile of characters in any film should play the characters? It wouldn't be acting then, would it? What a ridiculous concept. For all you know, he IS Italian. Anyway, they look for ACTORS, not ITALIANS.
@@leavingitblank9363 his last name doesn’t end in a vowel, sorry he’s not a Wop. With your silly thinking I’ll play Stevie wonder in his bio pic, it’s just acting, right ?
I like how she asks if he'd do a Comedy and he says he hasn't been offered one - that's because there ARE NONE lol. Ever since the wokeness happened, no one makes good comedies anymore.
The first time I saw Adam Driver's face was when he took off his mask as Kylo-Ren in Star Wars and I remember thinking "I don't like this man." And now he's one of my favorite actors. He's just incredible in every movie he does and he chooses them so well; I don't think I've seen a bad Adam Driver movie. It always impresses me when an actor can go from "I don't like him" to one of my favorites, most actors you like because they're attractive but they're not quite as good as the hype - the opposite is quite difficult to pull off but Adam did it in like 3 years, for me at least lol.
@@NoName-jq7tj I stood in a line of FIAT people. He was quite ailing so it was very quick.

LOL though I like Driver as an actor, the fact that actors are totally uncurious/uninterested about the subject matter they're portraying baffles me sometimes. Like how can you sell a role playing an Italian, trying to pass an Italian accent at that, and seemingly don't even bother to study a simple pronunciation lol
No flash, no scandal, great intelligence and a great actor.

@@robertmarley8852 you were hoping for a black Ferrari!🤣

Enzo is certainly smiling having a guy named "DRIVER" portray him 😅❤
Wonderful interview. Love Driver’s work.
I love everything Adam Driver does! An incredible actor!

Loved the film… Adam was fantastic. All the actors were brilliant and brilliant direction. Will definitely see this one again.

“People come-up with their own mechanisms”.
Great understanding

Adam Driver is an excellent actor, it will be interesting to see him as Enzo Ferrari.

Adam Driver deserves an Academy Award for his role in this movie. Awesome!
I really thought the lead actor in this movie was an Italian man in his 50s. I was so suprised to read after it that he was the guy was Star Wars, American and in his early 40s!
His interviews remind me of the way Connery used to speak.
Excellent film and very good actor.
Don’t insult Driver
Why didnt they get Mesut Ozil to play Enzo Ferrari?
The Ford vs Ferrari movie describes Enzo very well as Adam is. He nearly drove the company into bankruptcy when Ford came along with a bailout that he turned down. This led to the rise of Carroll Shelby arguably an equally great race car and car builder, then Ford beating them at LeMans.

A facinating history.
I predict Adam Driver will portray italian tycoon and FIAT owner Gianni Agnelli.😊
I love the movie 10/10. Even I can't afford a Ferrari but I can always buy a diecast at wallmart hehee :)
The Ferrari is a dream
Amazing actor
I almost did not recognize him in this movie
Oh it's one of the most reck-a-nized in the world? You don't say.
Who would have thought the pidgeon was a metaphor
Now an American actor explains who Enzo Ferrari was, perhaps before talking you should know who and what you are talking about, there is a sidereal distance between the real Enzo and the one played by him
Cool
I still haven't seen House of Gucci.
we own hollywood

Good movie, too bad they made such a mediocre one about Lamborghini, the main character actor is awful

They have to make period films to avoid having to put blacks in them, and lose money.
There's more drama and intrigue to pull from, more characters as well. Protestants just don't make good stories lol

Why does Hollywood dislike Italians so much?
Go see Lamborghini waaaay better than Ferrari
More Italians in it too
Adam is so diverse and intelligent.

Who else best to play the lead in "Ferrari" than someone named "Driver"?
A Italian would be better

Who else would like to see Adam and Keanu in a movie?
He is a good actor but miscast as Enzo.
I think that he was quite good. I shook the hand of Sr. Ferrari in 1984, in a very brief FIAT meeting. Adam nailed it.
@@thomasmulhall4873That’s interesting. Any sights into the man?

He was quite ailing so it was very quick. Camera with the photo talen stolen out of our car in Torino on C/so Vitt Emanuele II, along with our luggage, etc.

inmaculate!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Until this movie, I had never heard of Adam Driver. I would have thought they'd have found somebody who looks more like Ferrari himself.
Great interview. Great interviewer.
Brilliant acting
Нуууууу, началось винисмитство? 😂
Wow Adam is too tall, too young, too good looking and his accent is not even close. regardless they made a good and entertaining beautiful movie.
Good looking? 😅
the guy cannot even pronounce the name "Scaglietti" correctly.. and he plays as Enzo. Great casting.
