  1. Drive [2011], Just a Magnificent Piece of Cinema... Period!@chris-chris92397d

    There’s something quietly volcanic about Drive—a film that seeps into the bloodstream like neon through rain. I remember the first time I watched it, not just as a story, but as a feeling—a lonely throb in the chest. Gosling’s Driver doesn’t speak much, but when he does, it’s as if silence had curated each word before delivery. His detachment, his calculated calm, that scorpion jacket—these aren’t just costume and quirk, they’re armor against a world that chews softness into pulp.

    The film’s aesthetic is clinical and romantic all at once—Nicolas Winding Refn orchestrates every frame like a hymn to solitude. The long takes, the dusk-lit Los Angeles, the pastel palette that betrays violence—there’s an elegance in the restraint. Yet beneath the surface, there’s a constant hum of tension, like a muscle clenched too long. The editing pulses with both patience and menace. It makes you wait. And then it breaks you.

    Psychologically, the film toys with identity and duality. The Driver is no hero, nor villain—he’s an archetype carved from contradiction. He exists in liminal spaces, where silence is louder than violence and affection more dangerous than a heist gone wrong. He’s yearning, but unable to reach. I saw in him a man who’s stripped of words because he’s seen too much to speak simply. It left me wondering: who are we when no one’s looking—and does it matter if no one ever truly sees us?

    And then there’s the soundtrack—God, the soundtrack. Nightcall, A Real Hero, Under Your Spell—not just musical accompaniment, but the soul of the film itself. These synth-heavy, dream-drenched tracks give voice to what Driver can’t say. It’s a mixtape of isolation and desire, of dusk-drenched romance and looming consequence. It transforms LA into a retro-futuristic ghost town where love and violence live next door.

    Since its release, Drive has evolved from cult favorite to cultural touchstone. It influenced fashion, music, even the grammar of modern cinematic cool. But beyond the iconography, it remains, for me, a mirror—a film that asks what it means to move through life unseen, to love in silence, and to choose, in one moment, who we’re willing to become when the mask finally breaks.

    Hello friends, I'm here with another interesting movie title Drive and I would like to share you with here.

    The movie is about a stuntman and getaway driver falls in love with Irene, who is married to a criminal. In a bid to protect her from her husband and some gangsters, he decides to cross over to the other side of the law.

    It begins when a man (billed as “The Driver”), works as a mechanic, a stunt double, a stunt driver, and a criminal-for-hire getaway driver in Los Angeles, California.

    His jobs are all managed by auto shop owner Shannon, who persuades Jewish-American mobster Bernie Rose and his half-Italian partner Niño “Izzy” Paolozzi to purchase a car for the Driver to race.

    The Driver meets his new neighbor, Irene, and grows close to her and her young son, Benicio.

    Their relationship is interrupted when Irene's husband, Standard Gabriel, arrives after his release from prison.

    Standard owes protection money from his time in prison and is assaulted by Albanian gangster Chris Cook.

    He demands that Standard rob a pawn shop for $40,000 to pay off the debt, threatening that otherwise he will hurt Benicio and Irene.

    Learning this, the Driver offers to act as the getaway driver for the pawn shop robbery.

    While the Driver is waiting outside the pawn shop with Blanche, Cook's accomplice, Standard is killed by the store owner.

    The Driver and Blanche are then pursued by another car.

    The Driver hides with Blanche in a motel, where he learns that the pawn shop owner claims Standard was the sole perpetrator and no money was stolen.

    He threatens Blanche when she lies about being oblivious to the second car.

    She admits that the bag contains $1 million, and she and Cook planned to re-steal the money for themselves using the car that chased them.

    While Blanche is in the restroom, she is killed with a shotgun by one of Cook's henchmen. The Driver fatally stabs the gunman before killing another one with the shotgun.

    At the auto shop, Shannon offers to hide the money, but the Driver declines. He tracks Cook to a strip club and threatens to kill him.

    Cook reveals that Niño was behind the robbery. The Driver calls him, offering to give back the money in exchange for being left out of the affair.

    Niño dismisses his offer, instead sending a hitman to the Driver and Irene's apartment building.

    The Driver tells an angry Irene about his involvement with her husband's death. When the pair enters an elevator, the Driver notices the hitman.

    He kisses Irene and then brutally stomps the hitman to death, horrifying Irene.

    Knowing that someone must have leaked the Driver's whereabouts for Niño to know his address.

    The Driver confronts Shannon, who reveals that he called Bernie to tell him about the money, in the process also unwittingly mentioning Irene.

    A furious Driver tells Shannon to flee, warning that Niño will surely now hunt them both.

    At his pizzeria, Niño reveals to Bernie that a low-level Italian-American Philadelphia mobster from the “East Coast mob” stashed the money at the pawn shop, with plans to use the money to set up a new operation.

    Since anyone tied to the robbery could lead the East Coast Italian Mafia to them, they need to kill everyone involved.

    He convinces Bernie to follow his plan. Bernie murders Cook, as he is the sole witness to their agreement.

    After Shannon refuses to divulge the whereabouts of the Driver at the auto shop, Bernie slashes his forearm with a straight razor, killing him.

    Find out what happened next as Shannon refuses to divulge the whereabouts of the Driver at the auto shop, Bernie slashes his forearm with a straight razor killing him as it gets interesting.

    Thanks for reading my post.

  3. Drive (2011) - The story of the characters is ahead of the story of the movie@cute-cactus834d

    The 2011 movie Drive is the story of a character who uses his driving skills as a stuntman in movie productions and commits crimes at night. We never hear the name of the character played by Ryan Gosling throughout the movie, but he has the most important place in the story of the movie.

    [source](https://image.tmdb.org/t/p/original/2ohbUQl5NVqB7gBp8MZHf3JvOd7.jpg)

    I can say that I have watched such a character for the first time in recent memory. The character of Driver, played by Ryan Gosling, was initially unbelievable and so repulsive that I find it hard to describe him. His dull and cold-blooded appearance was more suited to horror movies or movies with a serial killer.

    As the movie progresses, the character changes with the limited number of people he includes in his life. The most important link in this change is of course love, and the character of Irene is the architect of this change and the woman he falls in love with. Carey Mulligan, who plays Irene, is a responsible mother and a wife with problems.

    The stagnation of the characters, their fears, their responsibilities and the limited number of people they take into their lives are more interesting than the plot of Drive. Bringing together two opposite-sex characters who are similar in many ways and adding a detail that could be as big a barrier as a chasm between them makes for great viewing pleasure.

    This is reflected as a misfortune of meeting in the wrong place at the wrong time, rather than the characters colliding with each other. It can be thought of as trying to fit two different lives into one room at the same time, very close to each other, but with huge gaps that cannot be crossed.

    [source](https://image.tmdb.org/t/p/original/xzLycwNMkF2eci7AM8LRUStTHfm.jpg)

    The fact that their dialogues are quite short, and that even when they ask each other questions, they seem too lazy to answer, gives the movie a different atmosphere. I'm sure most people won't like this look, but I liked it a lot because it reflects their inner world.

    In general, I even think that the plot of Drive contradicts the story. Yes, there is a man who drives a great car, just as it is said; he does stunts and commits crimes, but the same person can have the opposite character.

    In terms of actor performance, I can say that this is one of Ryan Gosling's worst movies. But thanks to the subtle details between the beginning and the end of the story, I can say with peace of mind that I liked it very much. I can also say that I am surprised that the director of the movie received an award for this movie because I see the director as responsible for the kind of pale and static scenes that affect the performance of the movie and the actors. I think the director has the biggest share in each of the contradictions in question.

    [source](https://image.tmdb.org/t/p/original/iymDDg4upZWgpbSeiE1JCjsSPBs.jpg)

    In spite of everything, there are differences in Drive that don't make sense and I can't quite figure out what they are. The reason for this can be seen as the harmony and disharmony between the two characters I mentioned. In both cases, it can be assumed that the reflection of their inner world is hidden in the way they influence each other.

    I liked the story of the characters and their interconnection with each other more than the story of the movie, so I personally recommend watching the movie, but I know that there will be some people who will find the movie quite boring. Time is of the essence, you have to make your own decision in the light of all this. I hope my thoughts have helped you to make your own decision. Thank you for reading.

  4. DRIVE | Movie Review 🎥@fabian98858d

    Sabías que uno de los actores con la carrera más extraordinaria es Ryan Gosling (en mi opinión) ya que ha participado en diferentes papeles y producciones tan mezcladas, que su actuación es tan sobresaliente por la increíble forma en la que se adapta a cada una de ellas, las más destacadas para mí son: El Diario de Noa, El Hombre Gris, Barbie, Loco y Estúpido Enamorado y La La Land. Pero entre estas hay una que después de verla inmediatamente la agregué a mi lista de Ryan, ya que no solo es una gran obra maestra del cine, sino que vi cierta conexión con una próxima película de Ryan Gosling que está por estrenarse. Y estoy hablando de Drive, de 2011. Así que como de costumbre, vamos a hablar de la trama y luego algunos aspectos destacados de esta película.

    Did you know that one of the actors with the most extraordinary career is Ryan Gosling (in my opinion) since he has participated in different roles and productions so mixed, that his acting is so outstanding for the incredible way in which he adapts to each of them, the most outstanding for me are: The Notebook, The Grey Man, Barbie, Crazy and Stupid in Love and La La Land. But among these is one that after I saw it I immediately added it to my Ryan's list, since it is not only a great masterpiece of cinema, but I saw some connection with an upcoming Ryan Gosling movie that is about to be released. And I'm talking about 2011's Drive. So as usual, let's talk about the plot and then some highlights of this movie.

    Drive nos cuenta la historia de un hombre sin nombre apodado "El Conductor", un misterioso individuo que vive una doble vida. De día, trabaja como mecánico en un taller y como doble de escenas de riesgo en películas de Hollywood, donde su talento al volante lo convierte en una pieza indispensable. De noche, se transforma en un conductor de fuga para atracos y robos, utilizando sus habilidades para escapar de la policía y burlar a los criminales.

    Pero la normalidad se ve inerrumpida cuando El Conductor conoce a Irene, una joven madre que vive en el mismo edificio que él. Irene está casada con Standard, un hombre que acaba de salir de prisión y que se ve envuelto en problemas con mafiosos locales. El Conductor se siente atraído por Irene y su hijo Benicio, y comienza a desarrollar un fuerte vínculo con ellos, brindándoles protección y apoyo. Y todo se vuelve aun peor cuando debe participar en un robo que sale mal, se encuentra en una encrucijada: debe elegir entre proteger su propia vida o salvar a Irene y Benicio de las garras de los criminales.

    Drive tells the story of a nameless man nicknamed "The Driver," a mysterious individual who lives a double life. By day, he works as a mechanic in a garage and as a stuntman in Hollywood movies, where his talent behind the wheel makes him indispensable. By night, he becomes a getaway driver for heists and robberies, using his skills to escape the police and outwit criminals.

    But normalcy is interrupted when The Driver meets Irene, a young mother who lives in the same building as him. Irene is married to Standard, a man who has just been released from prison and is involved in trouble with local mobsters. The Driver is attracted to Irene and her son Benicio, and begins to develop a strong bond with them, providing protection and support. And everything becomes even worse when he has to participate in a robbery that goes wrong, he finds himself at a crossroads: he must choose between protecting his own life or saving Irene and Benicio from the clutches of criminals.

    Esta es sin duda una de las mejores películas de Ryan Gosling, ya que está llena de suspense, acción y romance, con una estética visual única que combina elementos del cine de género clásico con un toque moderno y minimalista. También cuenta con una banda sonora, compuesta por Cliff Martínez, que además de ser icónica en cada escena, esta banda sonora juega un papel fundamental en la creación de la atmósfera melancólica y tensa que caracteriza a la película.

    Otro aspecto que la película destaca muy bien son las escenas de acción memorables, por ejemplo la que más puedo destacar es cuando el conductor está con Irene en un ascensor y entra un criminal, y el conductor lo mata a patadas, muy brutal pero icónico. Las persecuciones en coche son trepidantes y están filmadas con maestría, combinando planos generales con detalles que intensifican la adrenalina.

    This is undoubtedly one of Ryan Gosling's best films, as it is full of suspense, action and romance, with a unique visual aesthetic that combines elements of classic genre films with a modern and minimalist touch. It also has a soundtrack, composed by Cliff Martinez, which besides being iconic in every scene, this soundtrack plays a fundamental role in creating the melancholic and tense atmosphere that characterizes the film.

    Another aspect that the movie highlights very well are the memorable action scenes, for example the one I can highlight the most is when the driver is with Irene in an elevator and a criminal enters, and the driver kicks him to death, very brutal but iconic. The car chases are fast-paced and masterfully filmed, combining general shots with details that intensify the adrenaline.

    Tambien puedo destacar en como Drive hace Homenaje al cine clásico, tomando referencias y similitudes con otros clasicos del cine de accion, tales como "Bullitt" (1968) por las escenas de persecución, "A bout de souffle" (1960) por la estética y "The Driver" (1978) por la temática. Ademas La estética de Drive está fuertemente influenciada por el cine negro de los años 40 y 50. La película presenta una paleta de colores apagada, con predominio de rojos, azules y negros, que crea una atmósfera oscura y melancólica. La iluminación también juega un papel importante, utilizando claroscuros para crear una sensación de misterio y tensión.

    Y una ultima cosa que convierte a Drive en una pelicula iconica, es que aplica fielmente de que lo mucho no significa exito, ya que el guion de Ryan Gosling en esta pelicula no va mas alla de las 900 palabras en toda la pelicula, ya que mayormente podemos ver son planos del actor y debido a que es una persona solitaria, va muy acorde con el guion, lo cual es fascinante, ya que para conquistar a la audiencia no e necesaria tanto dialogo.

    I can also highlight how Drive pays homage to classic cinema, taking references and similarities with other classic action movies, such as "Bullitt" (1968) for the chase scenes, "A bout de souffle" (1960) for the aesthetics and "The Driver" (1978) for the theme. Drive's aesthetics are strongly influenced by the film noir of the 40s and 50s. The film features a muted color palette, with a predominance of reds, blues and blacks, which creates a dark and melancholic atmosphere. Lighting also plays an important role, using chiaroscuro to create a sense of mystery and tension.

    And one last thing that makes Drive an iconic film, is that it applies faithfully that much does not mean success, as the script of Ryan Gosling in this film does not go beyond 900 words in the whole film, as we can mostly see are shots of the actor and because he is a lonely person, it goes very much in line with the script, which is fascinating, since to conquer the audience is not necessary so much dialogue.

    Now it's your turn, what did you like the most about this iconic movie? or what other Ryan Gosling movies catch your attention? let me know in the comments, thank you very much for reading, see you next time.

    The fact that he uses the soundtrack as a pillar of support for the film is pleasant, since on more than one occasion this is the only element that is heard, all with the aim of generating more tension in the various scenes, which is why the section feels well implemented to serve as a remarkable and leading element on the tape.
    Es agradable el hecho de que utilice la banda sonora como un pilar de apoyo del filme siendo que en más de una ocasión este es el único elemento que se escucha, todo con el fin de generar más tensión en las diversas escenas, es por ello que el apartado se siente bien implementado para fungir como elemento destacable y protagónico en la cinta.


    construcci_n_de_mundo.png

    Property by @Jrjaime


    The construction of the world is complex, not because it exposes a world that is difficult to understand, but because the information is given little by little, making the setting not very specific about many things, this causes many things to remain unclear and with exploration. almost nil, what must be ruled out is that despite the lack of elements, at least the little it gives serves to understand the context fairly well.
    La construcción de mundo es compleja no por el hecho de que exponga un mundo difícil de entender sino porque la información se da a cuenta gotas haciendo que la ambientación sea poco específica sobre muchas cosas, esto provoca que muchos elementos queden sin esclarecer y con una exploración casi nula, lo que hay que descartar es que pese a la carencia de elementos por lo menos lo poco que da sirve para entender medianamente bien el contexto. Otro punto agradable de este apartado son los diferentes ángulos de cámara muy interesantes y dramáticos apartes iguales siendo factores que le dan personalidad al filme.


    plot.png

    Property by @Jrjaime


    The plot is even more squalid than the setting being that it lacks exploration and a clear premise, this would not be a problem if a goal or objective was later established but this never happens leaving a narrative that oscillates between style over substance and something more serious , this indecision prevents you from developing something congruent. It is necessary to highlight that in many cases the plot feels rushed and with forced elements that do not end up coming together correctly, at first you have a film with a character who has a double life who tries to make sense of it and find value. in it, the next moment there is a strange love triangle without much sense, then violence is added disproportionately that seeks to fill the lack of something interesting with numerous confrontations that are not well executed; all this only shows an incongruous narrative that is not clear about what it wants to be or where it wants to go.
    La trama es incluso más escuálida que la ambientación siendo que carece de exploración y de una premisa clara, esto no sería un problema si posteriormente se estableciera un objetivo o meta pero esto nunca pasa dejando una narrativa que oscila entre estilo sobre sustancia y algo más serio, esta indecisión le impide desarrollar algo congruente. Es necesario destacar que en muchos casos la trama se siente apresurada y con elementos añadidos de forma forzada que no terminan de cuajando correctamente, en un primer momento se tiene un filme con un personaje que tiene una doble vida que intenta darle un sentido y encontrar valor en la misma, al momento siguiente se tiene un triángulo amoroso extraño sin mucho sentido, luego se procede a añadir violencia de forma desproporcionada que busca rellenar la falta de algo interesante con numerosos enfrentamientos que no se encuentran bien ejecutados; todo ello solo evidencia una narrativa incongruente que no tiene claro que quiere ser ni a donde quiere llegar.


    characters.png

    Property by @Jrjaime


    Quiet characters are often used to make them look interesting, but this formula does not work for the protagonist because it is extremely boring to constantly focus on a guy who has less dialogue than a secondary character, who has no personality and who lacks of any iota of characterization that makes him feel interesting and that allows minimal empathy with him. The rest of the characters are supposed to complement the protagonist, although since the latter is an empty shell, there is not much that can be done, the villains are not really remarkable either, since they are only there to move the plot without achieving it satisfactorily.
    Muchas veces se hace uso de personajes callados para hacerlos lucir interesantes pero esta fórmula no funciona para el protagonista debido a que es sumamente aburrido que enfoquen de forma constante a un tipo que tiene menos diálogos que un personaje secundario, que no tiene personalidad y que carece de cualquier ápice de caracterización que lo haga sentir interesante y que permita empatizar minimante con él. El resto de personajes se supone que están para complementar al protagonista aunque al ser este último un cascarón vacío no hay mucho que se pueda hacer, los villanos tampoco son realmente destacables, puesto que estos solo están ahí para mover la trama sin conseguirlo satisfactoriamente.


    Drive had a good chance of being something remarkable if it had taken a more suitable path to develop its plot in a better way, this deficiency is seasoned with very forgettable characters and with a lack of information that ends up hurting it greatly. That is why it deserves 2.5 stars out of 7, it is not the worst in the world but it did have a high potential to become something more interesting than it ended up being.
    Drive tenía buenas posibilidades de ser algo destacable si hubiese tomado un camino más adecuado para desarrollar su trama de mejor forma, está carencia es sazonada con personajes muy olvidables y con una falta de información que termina perjudicándole de sobremanera. Es por ello que merece 2.5 estrellas de 7, no es lo peor del mundo pero si tenía un alto potencial para llegar a ser algo más interesante de lo que termino siendo.

  6. Drive (2011) review: I'm just like him fr.@richardalexis1255d

    Drive-467825966-large.jpg Source

    Separador.png

    To the rhythm of Nightcall - Kavinsky, the sequence with which Drive begins is as hypnotic as it is disconcerting, however, as the minutes go by we will understand that things will not follow the course we expect, and, in fact, we will have to face to a devastating thriller, where actions have consequences and chaos is inevitable.

    Ryan Gosling is the protagonist of this story, a quiet and reserved stuntman who, taking into account his skills behind the wheel, is regularly hired to drive criminals. His stoic personality and cold nature seem to work perfectly in the environment he lives in, keeping himself aloof from everyone and avoiding any kind of personal connection.

    Drive is a film with an extremely slow pace, something that ends up causing a brilliant contrast with the inherently fast pace of its premise, we spend whole minutes in which there is nothing else in front of the screen than characters looking at each other in absolute silence, communicating more in the absence of words than with their presence.

    Eventually we will understand that this slow cooking process is an effective way to immerse ourselves in a dirty and unprincipled universe, where survival implies leaving behind any kind of morality, and our simple existence represents a threat to others.

    Drive is a film that is beautiful, engaging and difficult to watch at the same time, at times, it criticizes the coldness with which the Hollywood world deals with its own industry, and at times, it seems to attack toxic masculinity in its most primitive form.

    Drive-989055429-large.jpg Source

    The raw action sequences are done with incredible tact, and its last half hour represents one of the most tense cinematic climaxes I've seen in ages. It's easy to understand why the Drive earned the cult status it has today.

    Separador.png

    Drive-467825966-large.jpg Source

    Separador.png

    Al ritmo de Nightcall - Kavinsky, la secuencia con la que inicia Drive es tan hipnótica cómo desconcertante, no obstante, con el paso de los minutos iremos comprendiendo que las cosas no seguirán el curso que esperamos, y, de hecho, nos tendremos que enfrentar a un thriller devastador, donde las acciones tienen consecuencias y el caos es inevitable.

    Ryan Gosling es El protagonista de esta historia, un doble de riesgo callado y reservado que, tomando en cuenta sus habilidades al volante, es contratado regularmente para conducirle a criminales. Su personalidad tan estoica y su naturaleza fría parecen funcionar a la perfección en el ambiente que se desenvuelve, manteniendose distante de todo el mundo y evitando cualquier tipo de conexión personal.

    Drive es una película con un ritmo extremadamente lento, algo que termina causando un contraste brillante con lo intrínsecamente acelerado de su premisa, pasamos minutos enteros en los que no hay nada más frente a la pantalla que personajes mirándose en absoluto silencio, comunicando más en la ausencia de palabras que con la presencia de ellas.

    Eventualmente entenderemos que este proceso de cocción lenta, es una forma efectiva de sumergirnos en un universo sucio y sin principios, dónde sobrevivir implica dejar atrás cualquier tipo de moralidad, y nuestra simple existencia representa una amenaza para los demás.

    Drive es una película hermosa, atractiva y difícil de ver al mismo tiempo, a ratos, critica la frialdad con la que el mundo hollywoodense Lidia con su propia industria, y a ratos, parece atacar la masculinidad tóxica en su forma más primitiva.

    Las secuencias de acción pura están hechas con un tacto increíble, y su última media hora representa uno de los climax cinematográficos más tensos que he visto en muchísimo tiempo. Es fácil entender por qué Drive se ganó el estatus de culto que tiene en la actualidad.

    For those of us who have seen Hollywood's Death Race and Fast and Furious series, we can say that the Bollywood Drive movie will definitely be liked. But inside the movie, you can see a story that is slightly different from Hollywood, which can really make a place in the mind of the audience. Also, we will see some excellent direction in this movie, through which the legal and illegal activities of various sectors are shown in a very interesting way. In one word today I am trying to present you a wonderful exciting movie of Bollywood.

    Movie Twist:

    1) Showing excellent car racing and showing them the best car racers out there. 2) An excellent corrupt accountant Vibha Singh. 3) Irrfan's arrival at Viba Singh's office and King's introduction. 4) Samar's sudden arrival in the racing group and gaining Tara's trust. 5) Samar introducing himself as King. 6) Tara fooling Samar and getting caught herself. 7) Samar and Irrfan's King is Secret Plane and succeeds brilliantly.

    The movie can be seen in:

    1) Some nice car racing scenes. 2) Vibha Singh, an excellent corrupt accountant at the highest level of the country. 3) An excellent master plane to capture the most wanted thief king. 4) Some process of how illegal work in a country can be legalized through percentage. 5) Using good code words through poetry. 6) Flimsy romanticism over light within the racing group. 7) Nice stealing scene using Summer King name. 8) Finally, the scene of King taking his share of the work is excellent.

    Movie Review:

    The movie starts with a car racing group, followed by a corrupt bureaucrat in Rashtrapati Bhavan. After this, King was seen stealing 300 kg of gold from a gold shop and it is known that he will steal the next one from Rashtrapati Bhavan. And so all kinds of security were increased in the Rashtrapati Bhaban and all kinds of efforts were made to catch King. And even though they and Samar's theft is successful, they are forced to surrender to Samar. At that time they confess to Samar that they are the King. But in the end, Irrfan and Samar catch King according to the plane they made and they also get their share from King. In short, the movie shows a successful plane to capture King.

    Movie likes:

    The scenes in the movie are good with Samar's brilliant intelligence, amazing driving and winning the trust of the racing group. Also, the way King was quietly enjoying his life while keeping his identity a secret was also entertaining and interesting. The music of the movie, the continuity of the story and the skill of the director were also good.

    #Comment:

    Gifted to Susanth Singh Rajput for all the love of the movie. Hope you will like Drive movie too.

    Thanks for taking your valuable time to read and watch the movie.

    OPINIÓN

    Drive, una película con una duración de una hora con cuarenta minutos, nominada a más de diez y seis premios en diferentes categorías, ganadora de algunos y del corazón de algunos amantes del cine. Esta película que se encuentra en la plataforma de Netflix me la recomendaron hace un tiempo, quise ver lo que muchos podrían alabarla como una obra maestra ¿Que tiene Drive que la hace tan reconocida?

    La historia cuenta con un interesante protagonista, alguien que no tiene muchas palabras y pocas reacciones ante muchas situaciones, seria un perfecto protagonista de una película de héroes como un antihéroe o un villano. Me gusta el trabajo de Ryan Gosling, da un sentimiento de hombre capaz de todo, sin la necesidad de ser por un impulso sentimentalista, lo hace por ser lo correcto. Llegue a leer que en su momento de su estreno en el 2011 la mostraron como una película al estilo Rápidos y Furiosos, cuando no tiene nada que ver con eso, su nombre lo tiene nada más para darle uno y al protagonista, es más una historia de acción con un poco de romance.

    Fue considerada la mejor película del año para algunos directores, pero no gano más que como mejor director para Nicolas Winding Refn. La película es entretenida, tiene un poco de misterio en las acciones del protagonista dándole un poco de suspenso, el romance involucrado en la cinta lo hace ver como un amor maduro, una muestra de que si no es tuyo, al menos le deseas lo mejor. Da un giro a partir de la mitad de la cinta, dejándonos pegados a la pantalla esperando el producto final, es lo que llamo la critica de cine Carrie Rickey "Es un artístico entretenimiento comercial" no siendo muy profunda para analizarla pero si para apreciarla.

    Ese comentario fue el que se apego más a mí, la vi como una película comercial más que una de culto, no es lo suficientemente profunda como para analizar todo lo que sucede en la pantalla y eso esta bien, cumple con el cometido de entretener, de dejarnos esperar el final con ansias, cerrando de una manera limpia, fácil de diferir, que nos permite dar un cierre a una película que se podría ver un fin de semana en una noche de películas, sin lugar a dudas la recomiendo.

    OPINION

    Drive, a film lasting one hour and forty minutes, nominated for more than sixteen awards in different categories, winner of some and the hearts of some movie lovers. This movie that is on the Netflix platform was recommended to me a while ago, I wanted to see what many could praise it as a masterpiece. What does Drive have that makes it so recognized?

    The story has an interesting protagonist, someone who does not have many words and few reactions to many situations, he would be a perfect protagonist of a hero movie as an antihero or a villain. I like the work of Ryan Gosling, he gives a feeling of a man capable of anything, without the need to be sentimental, he does it to be the right thing to do. I came to read that at the time of its premiere in 2011 they showed it as a movie in the style of Fast and Furious, when it has nothing to do with that, its name has nothing more to give it one and the protagonist, it is more a story action with a bit of romance.

    It was considered the best film of the year by some directors, but won only as best director for Nicolas Winding Refn. The film is entertaining, it has a bit of mystery in the actions of the protagonist giving it a bit of suspense, the romance involved in the film makes it look like a mature love, a sign that if it is not yours, at least you wish it the best. It takes a turn from the middle of the film, leaving us glued to the screen waiting for the final product, it is what the film critic Carrie Rickey called "It is an artistic commercial entertainment" not being very deep to analyze it but to appreciate it.

    That comment was the one that stuck to me the most, I saw it as a commercial film more than a cult one, it is not deep enough to analyze everything that happens on the screen and that is fine, it fulfills the task of entertaining, of letting us look forward to the end, closing in a clean way, easy to defer, that allows us to close a film that could be seen on a weekend at a movie night, without a doubt I recommend it.

  9. Drive (2019) on Netflix@nazirullsafry1756d

    driveposter.png

    Apart from the crime-thriller plot and vibe, this one has more than meets the eyes.

    Ahh...Neo-noir.

    The genre never fails to take me to another place. The casting of Ryan Gosling as the main character is spot-on for the lack of his facial and gestures. The 'mise-en-scene' though (frames and colors are gorgeous btw), gives it life and story brilliantly. The transition between his character in the first half of the movie to something darker is done by just a still shot of him and a dark tune playing in the background.

    That's all it takes.

    Having said that, I can't avoid going full Jungian and Campbell into this. Because the cues are all over the place. drive1.jpg Taking a quote from Joseph Campbell, "God is the manifestation of the energy. And the level of energy that is involved or represented determines the character of the god. There are gods of violence, there are gods or compassion, there are gods that unite the two. These are personifications of the energy that’s in play, and what the source of the energy is." It is about the God within us.

    He shifted deeper into the shadow during the execution of the mob boss. And he can also be lit with joy being around the lady and his son.

    The mask Ryan Gosling wears is a personification of justice for the acts of the mob's boss. The ending scene shows it all as he sits motionless in the car after being stabbed. The still frame purposefully stretches longer than any other normal frame in any film. But then Ryan Gosling moves and breathes. Here he is the metaphorical representation of the divine idea of justice. Same as his first transition mid-way into the movie spoken earlier.

    And Ryan Gosling's character? He has no name *wink

  10. Drive (2011) | Movie Review@gonklavez91760d

    Movie Thumbnail.png

    I’m going to avoid any vehicular puns here, but to use to obvious metaphor, Drive is an American muscle car. Sleek, sexy, and extremely powerful – but not overly refined or with much intricacy going on beneath the surface. But it’s an absolute triumph of style over substance, and the simplicity of what the story presents means that its effects linger for a long time afterward - a bit like if that same muscle car plowed into you at top speed at a zebra crossing.

    Ryan Gosling’s lead character doesn’t even have a name – he’s simply Driver. Working in the day as both a mechanic and a stuntman, at night, he pulls in some (read: lots of) extra cash as a wheelman for LA’s crims. But despite his ill-gotten gains, Driver continues to live the simple life in a bare and dingy apartment, his smoldering looks taking the place of actually talking.

    image.png

    However, his existence is flung down the crap creek when he befriends the so-beautiful-it-hurts Irene (Carey Mulligan). Her recently released ex-con husband owes some local mobsters a hefty sum, which leads to him robbing a pawnshop to pay off the debt. Wanting to play the good Samaritan, Driver offers up his getaway services.

    The break-in goes about as smoothly as a back massage from a bull mastiff – and from there on, stuff properly kicks off. It would be spoilerific to say much more than this, but it’s a furiously paced and genuinely tense ride until the end. It’s also ferocious and will make you think twice about ever shaking hands again.

    It’s a visual treat, with neon lights playing against a gray, grainy palette, and the muted atmosphere gives the events much more impact.

    Gosling is also excellent at channeling his inner near-silent film star. All of this combined with a score that’s perfectly composed and compiled means that Drive is a breed of a heist movie that’s never anything less than wheelie good.

  11. Drive (Película): una vida detrás del volante@cristiancaicedo2089d

    Quizás les haya ocurrido que, pasado un tiempo, cuando vuelven a ver una película, su valoración sobre ella cambia. Al igual que nadie se baña dos veces en el mismo río, creo que nadie ve la misma película dos veces. Algunas veces no entenderemos por qué nos gustó una cinta tiempo atrás y otras veces la nueva visita será a favor de la historia, pero creo que es buena idea darle una segunda oportunidad a ciertos films, ¿cómo saber a cuáles? Ya eso es otro tema, pero digo todo esto porque fue lo que me ocurrió con Drive de 2011.

    El protagonista es Ryan Gosling y en los créditos aparece como Driver (Conductor), así que partamos de que no tiene nombre. Es un hombre tranquilo, sencillo, que trabaja en un taller durante el día y es conductor especialista de cine gracias a los contactos de su jefe Shannon (Brian Cranston) quien conoce bien su talento al volante. En algún punto incluso se presenta la posibilidad de conducir un auto de carreras y Shannon piensa en él para estar detrás del volante. Pero además de estos trabajos, Driver obtiene unos ingresos extra como chófer para criminales. Los tipos malos que lo contactan necesitando un conductor experto para huir del lugar de sus fechorías, sólo le dan una dirección y una hora exacta y él se encarga de sacarlos de allí eludiendo a la policía y dejarlos a salvo en otra locación. Sin ningún tipo de brújula moral, trabajando sólo por el dinero y conociendo su destreza al volante, Driver pasa prácticamente todo el día trabajando, en el taller, como doble de cine, en fugas criminales, siempre muy serio, calmado y silencioso. Hasta que - siempre hay un adverbio que cambia todo y en este caso ese adverbio tiene nombre de mujer - conoce a Irene.

    Carey Mulligan interpreta a la atractiva vecina del conductor. Tiene un hijo pequeño y su marido está en la cárcel. Driver es introvertido, busca siempre no llamar la atención de ninguna manera ni establecer lazos con las personas. Es un solitario. Sin embargo, Irene es tan encantadora que él no puede evitar acercarse, a pesar de todas las alarmas y en la forma en que un hombre solitario y criminal (porque parte de lo que hace es ilegal) se acerca a un ser que de alguna manera lo necesita, me recordó muchas otras historias, entre ellas León, el profesional con Jay Reno y Natalie Portman.

    La primera vez que vi esta película fue hace unos cinco años y no me pareció gran cosa. Sin embargo, creo que fue porque no le presté suficiente atención. Quizás la ocasión, la compañía u otras cosas ajenas a la cinta me infundieron una predisposición negativa y me impidieron disfrutarla. En esta segunda oportunidad, hace un par de meses, la encontré mucho mejor. La historia, basada en la novela de James Sallis tiene cosas interesantes y la puesta en escena está bien lograda, tiene buena fotografía, excelentes efectos de sonido y una canción en su banda sonora que se te queda en la cabeza (A Real Hero de College ft. Electric Youth). Sumemos a eso la participación de Albert Brooks, Ron Perlman, Bryan Cranston, Oscar Isaac y una breve aparición de Christina Hendricks, además de una como siempre encantadora Carey Mulligan y un inusualmente silencioso Ryan Gosling. Estaba (estoy) acostumbrado a verlo iterpretando personajes elocuentes, así que verlo contenido, sereno y callado durante un par de horas, es algo diferente de forma positiva.

    En los últimos años germinó en mí un nuevo respeto por Ryan Gosling como actor. Lo conocía de la icónica The Notebook, Blue Valentine y alguna otra película por allí, pero después de verlo en The Big Short y La La Land (dos de mis películas favoritas) comencé a prestarle más atención a sus actuaciones y aunque no me parece un actor de la talla de los más grandes como Daniel Day-Lewis, sí encuentro que es un buen actor y que en su amplia filmografía se pueden encontrar distintos tipos de películas y de papeles (reconozco que muchos de sus roles son similares, pero hay varios que se salen de allí y que vale la pena visitar). Finalmente, cabe mencionar que muchos han colocado a Drive entre las mejores 100 películas del siglo XXI e incluso se le han hecho tributos y se le considera una película de culto. Yo no llegaría a tanto. Para mí es una película de 6,5/10 puntos que vale la pena ver, más que muchas de las opciones disponibles en las diferentes plataformas de streaming actualmente y por eso se las traigo como recomendación del día.

  12. Watching the Film Drive in a Cemetery!@distantsignal2961d

    07db070a-7562-4862-a17c-d375b340a650.jpeg


    Got to have an early birthday present last night watching on of my favorite films at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery in Hollywood last night! It might be my favorite place to watch a film. You can bring whatever you like to eat, spread out on a blanket on some thick grass and enjoy a show surrounded by the dead. I think a zombie film is in order.

    As far as Drive goes, what an immersive experience. The police helicopters circled above at the perfect time during the car chase with the Helicopter you’d think they were waiting for it!

    Cinespia is the organization that puts these screenings on all summer long.

    We were also treated by the appearance of the director, Nicolas Winding Refn, who made some jokes about being Gosling’s soul mated, telekinetic twin - which i found hilarious - and showed us a trailer for his new TV series! I forget what it’s called but it looks amazing.

  13. "Drive" by Nicolas Refn - movie review@godflesh3033d

    Strange is the feeling after this movie. Expectation can mislead by habit. Actor names can arrange a preliminary puzzle. But when the meeting of us, with the characters and their story ends, it is the best feel when we look at the Difference. Because guess how you wish and you will be right - the promise of a boy driver behind the wheel, ties to gangsters and a hint of love story is given and respected. And the film can not boast with an original idea. However - here comes the big "BUT" - the view is different! And the "driver" is different, but for that later! For all those familiar with the Pusher trilogy and those who watched Valhalla Rising or John Torturo in Fear X, Nicholas Winding Refn's name is well known. Named the native Denmark, "The Wild Child," he is a screenwriter, director and producer and a tireless "stirrer" of festival spirits - his films are selected in Venice, Sundance, Toronto; Taipei and Valencia - awards for contribution to art; the British media described him as "a great European author". He has been involved with the adaptation of Hugh Amini in the 2005 novel by James Salis, whose premiere was a few months ago in Cannes, and Winding Refn received the Best Director Award. And I will say with a good conscience - it is wonderful!

    2359f7c5351a.jpg

    I have not seen (at least I do not think) such a non-standard criminal act. There are the compulsory burglaries (but one is important!), The chasing at speed, the shootings ... but the special, as if calm and removed camera and the music "lining" in most of the scenes creates part of the feeling of Different. I have never been a fan of the useless use of cadence movements, but here, in the cases where the director had allowed this accent, he did not irritate me. And once we talk about justified directorial decisions - the best thing that happened to this movie is the acting team. I say quite responsibly that I can be accused of a biased attitude! After Ryan Gosling had somehow stayed on the edge of my special "watching the actor" when I came to "Blue Valentine" and remembered the impression of "The Notebook," I decided to fill my pass. And - I'm sure the real connoisseurs of acting talent will agree with me unreservedly - I'm delighted with Gosling's ability to choose roles to fill them in life in the most talented way possible. He is very good - really! Winding Refin has hit the ten with the decision to take as a driver and also the engine of this movie! Caught, immobile calm, focused on reality and smiling shyly to the charming neighbor with the cool little boy, Gosling's driver falls into a mafia-like creature built around his unique ability to drive like a demon! But before dropping him on the racing track, the dad's dad comes out of prison and it turns out that because of his platonic feelings towards the mother, the driver gets involved in a bloody (a lot!) money mess. And surprises start! I will not spoil them with explanations, I will just mention my favorite moment - a wonderful kiss in elevator, seconds later the instinct for self-preservation and protection of your favorites combined with an immense amount of anger unleashes such uncontrollable outburst that is on the brink of psychic. Cruelly captured, cruelly recreated!

    Ryan Gosling i Drive.jpg

    It would be unjust to pass veteran master Albert Brooks (in the role of the chief mafia) who is over-professional in dealing with his assignments. The director is a fan of visual specificity - so his actors skillfully serve with forks, knives, rifles and other similar methods of casting blood. Without blinking his eye, Brooks's character made a vein-arterial-combined cut on the forearm of one of the heroes with seductive words like a toddler "That was it! It's over, calm - it will not hurt! "For some audiences, the bloody moments may turn out to be more, but I have seen them as something necessary or even imperative. The provocative directorial decisions may be daunting, but obviously affect the audience according to their intentions. There are many things that can be said about "Life at Speed" - how Kerry Mulligan was given a role simply to attend, but shared the witty replica from which we operatively redesigned the subtitle of the article; how at some moments of ghostly persecution I thought about a great story of my beloved Roger Zelazis, "The Last of the Wild"; how some of the songs shook me with the subtext that they are the musical basis of certain episodes, but ... it is enough! People - many, opinions - all, and the movies - they are for watching! The blue ghostly look that can melt away from gentleness or cut as a blade ... The actor and the director here are different from the mainstream, and their complicity makes this film Different.
