Drive, an automobile transmission device. Here, violence becomes a protagonist and suspense becomes art. Disk drive, a device implementing a storage mechanisms where data is recorded by various electronic, magnetic, optical, or mechanical changes to a surface layer of one or more rotating disks. This is the territory to which Cronenberg attempted twice to return to, placing Viggo Mortensen in more or less convincing roles. It is a bomb of coolness and style that strikes the senses and assaults your expectations. It is a film made in Hollywood by a director that has not resigned to his trademarks and plot-pacing features so that he could get financially greedy. Winner of a Best Director award and nominated for the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival, this is not a Hollywood movie. the star comes with many activity film credit under his own belt, most notably Drive (2011), Gangster group (2013), and Blade athlete 2049 (2017). This turned out to be hist most accessible feature. An action drama about a mysterious Hollywood stuntman and mechanic who moonlights as a getaway driver, and finds himself in trouble when he helps out his neighbor. The camera is a silent stalker, intimidating and seductive at the same time. With Ryan Gosling, Carey Mulligan, Bryan Cranston, Albert Brooks.
He has perfected his visual style all the way from Pusher (1996) until Bronson (2008), including the immaculate camera placement and the golden lightning he uses for illuminating the darkest corners. The underground nudist dive bars / seedy joints cannot be omitted, of course. He still uses an awesome techno soundtrack (with some pop touches that I can forgive) to open his films and to close them. He still likes to dress his crooks with light grey pants and have some of them bald, like if they were still living in Denmark. Before you ask, this is not my first Refn movie.
