'Ferrari' will focus on three months of Enzo Ferrari's life that were among the most pivotal in his career.
. Ferrari had just lost his son Dino to illness, and his wife Laure would soon find out about his affair with Lina Lardi .Ferrari's company was also failing, and in the movie at least, the only way to save it was for the factory race team to finish well at the 1957 Mille Miglia. Named for its 1,000-mile distance, the race was run on public roads before modern safety considerations.
Before filming, Mann had cinematographer Erik Messerschmidt and his camera crew study footage of the 1955 fatal crash at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Pierre Levegh's Mercedes-Benz was launched into the grandstands, killing Levegh and what is estimated to be more than 80 spectators in the deadliest racing incident in history. Mann then made a trip to Guidizzolo, interviewing a witness to the 1957 crash.The inspiration for"Ferrari" was something a little more pleasant.
