Drive Screenwriting

2021-10-13 18:32
The script of the film is adapted from the novel of the same name published by James Sallis in 2005. In the novel, Sarris portrays an anonymous man who drives a car during the day and performs stunts and goes out to commit crimes at night. Horsin Amini. Because the original is a short story, and the temperament is gloomy and dark, with poetic language. The novel does not tell the story in a linear manner. Salis used a lot of interspersion and flashback techniques to compose the novel very complicatedly. Hossing Amini believes that if the script is to be written in a non-linear structure, the structure of the film will be quite challenging.
So Horsing Amini intensified the role played by Ryan Gosling in the anonymous role in the script, portraying him from a dangerous criminal into a western hero. After reading the script, the director of the film, Nicholas Winding Refn, I was fascinated by the story of the man with a dual identity. In Horsing Amini’s script, the story and behavior of this anonymous person became the key. His past, choices, and behavior are the highlights and highlights of the whole movie.

    The footage of Winding Refn is very calm. The font used by the subtitles bothers me a lot. Ryan, please don’t linger, hurry up and become popular. I’ve been waiting for you to become popular for four years.

    【B+】The first nwr work of a personal patch. As far as the audio-visual atmosphere of this film is concerned, after watching it, I can only kneel down. I don't know what nwr did on the camera, but while watching the movie, I could clearly feel the subtle emotional flow he wanted to convey through the picture, the solidification of light and the collage of colors were all integrated, impeccable. Audiovisual enjoyment. Especially in the opening scenes of fleeing by car and kissing in the elevator, the image atmosphere formed by editing and photography is the highlight of the whole film. Suddenly I was a little curious about how it would behave if NWR was allowed to shoot "Blade Runner". Another thing I'm curious about is whether NWR lets the images add color to the mediocre scripts, or can they choose these mediocre scripts to emphasize the images?
