Boiling the plot of Drive down to its most basic, it is about a man (Ryan Gosling) who drives. He has three jobs: a stunt driver for movies, a mechanic and a getaway driver. He is a very good driver,ralph lauren, carrying out his work with a cool, calm precision leaving the sweating to those around him.
The genius of Drive,doudoune moncler, for me,louboutin, is that it succeeds in making the audience get behind a protagonist who says very little,moncler outlet, has no back story and is prone to acts of the most brutal violence. He doesn't even have a name,moncler, in the end credits he is just known as 'Driver'.
When Irene's husband gets out of prison and is pursued by a gang for unpaid protection money the driver agrees to help out but the heist intended to sort out the cash flow goes wrong and he soon finds himself on the wrong side of the local mob.
With a different director (Nicholas Winding Refn won a director nod at Cannes) and a different lead this would most likely have become an average thriller however it is a film of binary opposites that all work brilliantly to elevate it to something more. The pared down dialogue,moncler uomo, scenes of simple domesticity and tender moments interwoven with pulse-racing car chases,christian louboutin, tension and abject violence.
And yet you forgive him,moncler, in fact you root for him. The film positively oozes with atmosphere that it almost feels like a tragedy.
The shocking thing about the driver is that he seems emotionally anaesthetised about inflicting such brutal acts and yet you catch glimpses of something far darker beneath the surface,doudoune moncler, something that he can't quite control. And this is Gaspar Noe-style brutality, visceral assaults that have the slightly more sensitive types (and I count myself one) squirming in their seats to cover eyes and ears.
I'm going to give drive 83% because it was understated and gripping and I enjoyed it very much. On IMDb it has a rating of 84% and its Metascore is listed as 79%. On Rotten Tomatoes it has a critics rating of 93% and a visitor rating of 79%
But he isn't cocky or smarmy,chaussures louboutin, there is a humanity to him. He helps out his neighbour Irene (Carey Mulligan) and her young son while Irene's husband is in prison. There is in an obvious attraction between the two but he is never predatory indeed he is extremely gentlemanly.
