Movie No. 196 (2013): RUSH
Rush (2013)
Director: Ron Howard
Cast: Chris Hemsworth, Daniel Bruhl
I know practically nothing about Formula 1 racing. I don't find it interesting. I didn't know Rush is about the real-life rivalry of two celebrities of this sport (if you call it sport) during the 1970s. Despite these given, however, I find the Ron Howard-directed film thrilling, while avoiding triteness in the drama. The two main characters are presented as human, with all their vulnerabilities, and not as fancy heroes. In addition to superb editing, Daniel Bruhl's performance is something to take note of.
