Could ‘Ford v Ferrari’ win the Oscar for best picture? The case for the Christian Bale vehicle.


ADTotal nominations: Four, including best picture, film editing, sound editing and sound mixing. Starring: Bale and Damon, with Tracy Letts and Jon Bernthal in supporting roles as Ford and Ford executive Lee Iacocca, respectively. Why it could win: “Ford v Ferrari” isn’t just a thrilling movie. (The surprise win would be Screen Actors Guild Award winner “Parasite.”) “Ford v Ferrari” doesn’t have much to say about war, or about Hollywood in 1969. It does have a little to say about the evils of capitalism — Letts’s character is more of a Big Bad than anyone at Ferrari — but, on the whole, “Ford v Ferrari” is just fun.
