The number of biographical films is growing every year. Many famous personalities become the protagonists of the narratives. Enzo Ferrari is no exception.
The number of biography films may soon be replenished with a picture about Enzo Ferrari - the man who created the legendary car brand. Currently, the authors of the project are looking for a source of funding!
The authors themselves compare their future film with the legendary "The Godfather". However, their hero, unlike Don Carleone, will not be associated with the world of the mafia, but with an equally cruel and ambiguous world of speeds and motors. It is known that the script is based on the book of a certain Brock Yeits!
Curiously, there has been talk of making a film based on this scenario for over ten years. Filming was supposed to start back in 2004. At the same time, it was planned to invite Al Pacino to the main role in the film, and Sydney Pollack was supposed to take the director's chair. However, then it did not work out to realize the plan.
It is known that the script reflects the stormy personal life of Enzo Ferrari, as well as his professional activities. Enzo Ferrari was married - once and for life! But this did not prevent the famous Italian from having a second family. In the professional field, Enzo Ferrari's "life's work" was the rivalry between the Ferrari auto company and another world famous auto giant, Maserati.
Until now, only documentaries have been filmed about the life of the founder of Ferrari!
