The cinematography was exclusively wide-angled 35mm with no hand-held camera use, making every scene eye pleasing. The film progresses slowly into its expected action sequences, but keeps from losing the artistic elements in the process. The driver’s softer side is brought out by Irene (Carey Mulligan) who is always filmed brighter than the other characters in a way that seems angelic and pure. Gosling only has about eighty lines in the entire film.Ĭrime syndicate leaders Bernie (Albert Brooks) and Nino (Ron Perlman) set up the heists that Gosling’s character gets involved in. He is a laconic, occasionally awkward stunt driver, who moonlights as a get-away driver for heists. The story centres around the nameless protagonist, referred to only as the driver, played by Ryan Gosling. Ryan Gosling and Carey Mulligan star in Drive.
Based on James Sallis’ novel and staring Ryan Gosling and Carey Mulligan, the film was featured at TIFF this year.
Neon colours and beautiful cinematography are a good diversion from the drab acting and lacklustre soundtrack in Nicolas Winding Refn-directed Drive (2011), which opened in theatres September 16.
