friend and foe

This film is another film adapted from a true story that I watched after Eddie the Eagle, which is more layered and deeper than the previous autobiography. This film is also the second movie about racing after the Fast and Furious series, which is more in-depth than the blockbuster Fast and Furious.
Both protagonists left a deep impression on me. If it is described in two words, James crazy and playboy, Nicky is serious and rational. They have completely different personalities and different fates, but it cannot be denied that they both have a legendary life.
I admire James for being able to die for the championship, his hands are poked with blood, and he doesn't care about the tire wear on slippery roads in rainy days. . Later, he retired as a host and died of a heart attack at the age of 45. Although the ending made the audience sigh, but so what? From beginning to end, he lived the life he wanted. He said, "What's the point of winning more prizes if you don't enjoy life?" When Nikki, who was seriously injured, returned to the game, he was really worried about his injury. At this time, they were no longer simply enemies, and they were already in the heart of each other. I admire each other. He even hit the reporter who raised the question of life attack on Nicky who just returned to the battlefield. At this time he is no longer an asshole.
I admire Nicky for being so smart, from the beginning by lending money to other people to become a driver and later on With his superb car repair skills, he has become a professional paid driver. This opening alone can make people ignore his status as a third-rate driver at the time and realize that he is not in the pool. I admire his almighty ability to both drive and repair cars, and even more admire him. After a series of strong performances in the intensive care unit after being seriously injured, his determination to return to the game is as strong as the pain he endured during the recovery process. I admire him for the top! I admire him when answering reporters' questions with an ugly face Not only was he not provoked, but he calmly faced the ugliness and laughed at the reporter. He said at the time, "The skin on my face comes from the graft on the right thigh. Although it is ugly, it will no longer drip into my eyes. This is a great thing for drivers. Good thing"...and near the end of the movie he says to James that "a wise man learns more from his enemies than a fool learns from his friends". Well, I admit I love Nier more Quito a little.
Little by little, the movie elevates the relationship between the two from being completely opposite to the point where they admire each other from the bottom of their hearts, and they are both enemies and friends.

    The script is neat, the characters are outstanding, the slow motion photography is very charming, and the director is a good start to the autumn! Fans who like F1 will be particularly excited. The movie not only tells the story of two good drivers who are serious, rigid and romantic, but also says that "there is not only one model for a successful life" and "the best opponent is your own." lucky". Lauda and Hunter are both the best roles of Bruch and Hammer in their careers, and the two sincere performances are touching

    Tidy and old-fashioned but exuding tidy and old-fashioned charm, Long Howard is still the best at describing the relationship between people to express what he wants to say, and he is also good at lines. In addition, the poster is too scumbag, deduct one star! !

Rush quotes

  • [first lines]

    Niki Lauda: Twenty five drivers start every season in Formula One, and each year two of us die. What kind of person does a job like this? Not normal men, for sure. Rebels, lunatics, dreamers. People who are that desperate to make a mark, and are prepared to die trying. My name is Niki Lauda, and racing people know me for two things. The first is my rivalry with him.

    [James Hunt]

    Niki Lauda: I don't know why it became such a big thing. We were just drivers busting each other's balls. To me this is perfectly normal, but other people saw in differently. That whatever it was between us went deeper. The other thing I'm remembered for is what happened on 1st August 1976, when I was chasing him like an asshole...

  • Italian Journalist: How are you feeling, Niki?

    Niki Lauda: Fine.

    American Journalist: Niki, can you confirm to us exactly which procedures you've had and the expectations for your recovery?

    Niki Lauda: Sure. I had a skin graft operation, where they put half my right thigh in my face. Now it doesn't look too good, but one unexpected advantage is it's impossible to perspire through a skin graft, so sweat will never run into my eyes again, which is good for a driver.

    [laughter from the journalists]

    Spanish Journalist: [Raises hand] When they heard about your condition, Ferrari immediately hired a replacement driver, Carlos Reutemann.

    Niki Lauda: Yeah. Before even reaching the hospital.

    German Journalist: Is Reutemann driving today, too?

    Niki Lauda: Yes, and keen to make an impression. So let's see where Mr. Reutemann finishes and where I finish today.

    American Journalist: James Hunt and McLaren have caught up a lot while you were away.

    Niki Lauda: Yes. So is there a question now, or are you just trying to piss me off?

    [laughter from the journalists]

    German Journalist: Do you still think you can win?

    Niki Lauda: Yes, of course. I have the better car. And possibly I'm the better driver. But he's a clever guy, and he's used his time well while I was lying half-dead in hospital... to win some points.

    British Journalish: And what did your wife say when she saw your face?

    [Lauda pauses]

    Niki Lauda: She said, 'Sweetie, you don't need a face to drive. You just need a right foot.'

    [laughter from the journalists]

    British Journalish: I'm being serious. Do you really think your marriage can survive with the way you look now?

    Niki Lauda: And I'm being serious, too.

    [Points at British journalist]

    Niki Lauda: Fuck you. Press conference over.

    [Lauda gets up angrily and storms his way out of the press conference]
