Lee Iacocca quotes from Ford v Ferrari (2019)

View Quote [During the Ford-Ferrari negotiations in Italy, Enzo Ferrari receives a message from Fiat. He begins to ask Lee Iacocca questions in Italian while Gary, Iacocca's translator, translates Ferrari's words in English.]
Gary: 'Only one small question. It concerns my race program. If I wish to race Le Mans, and you do not wish for me to race Le Mans... do we or do we not go?'
Lee Iacocca: Look, in that highly unlikely scenario... if, uh, we just can't agree... then, yes. I mean, no. You are correct. You do not go.
[Ferrari's translator explains, but he stops her. He then displays his anger towards Iacocca.]
Gary: 'My integrity as a constructor, as a man, as an Italian, is deeply insulted by your proposal.'
[Ferrari gets up and puts on his jacket.]
Gary: 'Go back to Michigan. Back to your big, ugly factory. Back to your big, ugly factory, making its ugly, little cars.'
[Ferrari approaches Iacocca]
Gary: 'Tell your pigheaded boss that all his, uh, smug executives are worthless sons of whores.'
Enzo Ferrari: [in English] Tell him he's not Henry Ford. He's Henry Ford II.
[Ferrari turns towards his associates]
Enzo Ferrari: [in Italian] I'm starving. Let's go eat.

[Henry II approaches the executives that went to Italy]

[Henry II approaches Iacocca]
