By my standards, Drive is certainly a good movie. This movie does not have so many complicated social backgrounds. The positive side is out of love, and the negative side is for profit. It is a story about a taciturn driver who falls in love with a married woman, and fights against the underworld forces to protect his beloved. There is a black story embedded in it. The reversal of eating black adds to the twists and turns of the plot. There are only a few characters, and each character is responsible for a certain amount of plot, so the part of the plot that belongs to him is over, the story develops, and the character dies very simply. Some movie protagonists always have nonsense to talk about, and the villains are equally crooked. The actor of this movie has a very strong execution. He shows his characteristics at the beginning of the movie. When he takes revenge to protect his lover in the later stage, he is simply neat. He doesn't talk nonsense and just fuck the guy. This is pure man. .
The contrast between the front and back of the film is actually quite large, but there is no sense of division. The light and shadow effects in the early stage, coupled with a bit of psychedelic background music, are very similar to a literary romance with a relaxed attitude; the soundtrack in the later stage is a bit more agitated, and the violent scenes have a different kind of beauty in the fast shots, it does not have That kind of blood-splattered mania, but quiet and powerful, in harmony with the overall feel of the film.
The main characters in the movie are all actors I really like, and Ryan Gosling is so good at playing such a cool role. Carey Mulligan's silence has a natural beauty, and you can feel the ups and downs of the character's emotions in the flow of her eyes. In this movie, I also like to watch the old white in "Breaking Bad": Bryan Cranston and the goddess in "Mad Men": Christina Hendricks, although the roles of the two Not much, but still very pleasant to see.
The story takes place in Los Angeles, but it's very different from the Los Angeles in the movies I've seen before. There is no hustle and bustle of city life, and there are only a few aerial city scenes to indicate the location. The director captured the quiet side of the city. Thinking of the article I read before on how to define a good writer, the author said that good writers can often establish their own set of language systems, and form their own unique style based on this, so even if they are telling the same story, The effect presented is quite different. I think the director of this film, Nicholas Winding Refn, used his own way to express this side of Los Angeles, which is so unique and impressive. No wonder he won the 64th Cannes with this film. Film Festival Best Director Award.
The part where the taciturn driver takes Erin and mother and son for a drive, paired with College's "A Real Hero (feat. Electric Youth)", is beautiful and unforgettable. After watching the movie, I found the soundtrack of the movie. Like the movie, it has also become a good soundtrack that I often reminisce about.
