So I just watched the movie for the 2nd time (in 4 days LOL) I announced on my timeline I'd see this movie with anyone who hasn't seen it like a jobless twit (which I am :hehe: )

After my 2nd viewing I kinda feel they overplayed the Hunt lifestyle, I mean the guy was either kissing, smoking, drinking in almost all his shots....so that was slightly overdone.

Oh and I was supporting the Lauda-Ferrari combo in the movie the 1st time I watched it even though I knew how it would end. The guy who played Lauda was stellar. :clap:

The scene with the pipe down his throat is hard to get used to though.

To be fair I laughed at a few points in the film.

My name is Hunt, it rhymes with... which describes you perfectly!

And

This is Italy, maybe a woman on her own would get picked up by a passing car.

Are you Niki Lauda
