"Appropriate response": Internet reacts as Adam Driver uses expletive in response to Ferrari crash scene criticism

A clip of actor Adam Driver recently went viral online and it featured him responding to a fan of his film during a Q&A session using the F word. The incident took place on Sunday, November 12, 2023, at the Camerimage Film Festival, where an individual asked Driver about the crash scene in his upcoming movie Ferrari.

The fan asked:

"What do you think about the crash scenes? They looked pretty harsh, drastic and, I must say, cheesy for me. What do you think?"

To this, Adam replied by saying:

"F**k you, I don’t know? Next question."

Soon after the actor's response, the audience started laughing.

The audience member's question was about the upcoming film Ferrari, which is based on the 1991 biography Enzo Ferrari: The Man, the Cars, the Races, the Machine. This biography was written by motorsports journalist Brock Yates. The movie was directed by Michael Mann and officially premiered at the 80th Venice International Film Festival in August. It will premiere in U.S. theaters on December 25, 2023.

As internet users came across this viral clip featuring Driver using the F word, they began sharing their thoughts about the same on social media. One internet user @Reeveslives reacted to a post by Discussing Film on X and believed that the actor's response was "appropriate."
