I think this is one subconscious reason I’ve been putting off seeing Ford v Ferrari. It would be cool to see all that vintage racing action on the big screen, but from what I’ve seen in trailers and reviews, it looks like the sort of movie that portrays rich white guys in the ‘60s being the unapologetic blowhards they…
