by Girl, Interrupted
and Logan director James
Mangold (the film was at one
time supposed to star Tom
Cruise and Brad Pitt), Le Mans
’66 tells the incredible true
story of the 1966 24 Hours of
Le Mans car race in France.
At the time, Enzo Ferrari’s
Italian motor-racing team
was the best in the business,
a finely-tuned machine (both
figuratively and literally)
thought to be unbeatable.
But following a business
deal turned sour, America’s
Henry Ford II decided to
challenge Ferrari’s monopoly
and tasked automotive
visionary Carroll Shelby and
British driver Ken Miles with
building a car to rival them.
With Matt Damon playing
Shelby and Christian Bale as
Miles (his first film since his
Oscar-nominated performance
in Vice), Le Mans ’66 is an
incredibly well-acted affair. But
the plot is riveting too as you
see these two men – both leaders
in their fields – uniting to fulfil
a shared impossible dream.

A delivery driver fights
to provide for his family Last Christmas
DIRECTOR KEN LOACH
STARRING KRIS HITCHEN,
DEBBIE HONEYWOOD, RHYS STONE Le Mans ‘66
Directed by the
masterful Ken Loach,
this hard-hitting British
drama sees Kris Hitchen’s zero-
hours delivery driver Ricky
falling deeper into debt as he
struggles to feed his family.
Like Loach’s recent I, Daniel
Blake, Sorry We Missed You
is a searing indictment of
modern Britain. You’ll come
away wondering where we
went so badly wrong... Little Monsters

How did the idea for the film arise?
After we’d finished I, Daniel Blake,
I was thinking, “Well, maybe that’s
the last film.” But when we were
going to the food banks for our
research many of the people that
were coming in were working
part-time, zero-hours contracts...
[and] gradually the idea emerged.
What questions do you hope
audiences come away asking?
Is this system sustainable? Do we
really want a world in which people
are working under such pressure?
The market is not interested in
our quality of life. The market
is interested in making money.
The working poor pay the price.
And yet Ricky never gives up...
[Our story] counts for nothing
unless the audience believes in
the people on screen. It is their
lived experiences, recognised as
authentic, that should touch us.
