Description of this Drive Poster
Drive is a 2011 American action film directed by Nicolas Winding Refn. The screenplay, written by Hossein Amini, is based on the eponymous novel by James Sallis published in 2005. The film stars Ryan Gosling in the role of an anonymous Hollywood stuntman who moonlights as a getaway driver. He quickly takes a liking to his neighbor, Irene (Carey Mulligan), and her young son, Benicio. When her debt-ridden husband Standard (Oscar Isaac) is released from prison, the two take part in a botched million-dollar heist that endangers the lives of everyone involved. The film stars Bryan Cranston, Christina Hendricks, Ron Perlman and Albert Brooks.
Producers Marc Platt and Adam Siegel optioned the source novel after Mr. Siegel read a Publishers Weekly review. Adapting the book proved difficult for Amini, as the narrative is not linear. Gosling, one of Platt's first choices for casting, eventually signed on for the lead role because he wanted to star in an action-oriented project. Gosling played a central role in the film's production, including hiring Refn as director and Beth Mickle as production designer. Newton Thomas Sigel oversaw principal photography, which began on September 25, 2010, was filmed in various Los Angeles neighborhoods, and concluded on November 12.
Prior to its release in September 2011, Drive was shown at a number of film festivals, including the 2011 Cannes Film Festival, where it received a standing ovation. Refn won the festival's best director award. The film was praised for its direction, cinematography, performances (especially those of Gosling and Brooks), visuals, action sequences, and musical score; however, some critics were dismayed by its graphic violence and felt that it could harm the film's box office success. Nevertheless, the film was a commercial success, grossing $81 million on a production budget of $15 million. Several critics ranked Drive among the best films of 2011, including the National Board of Review. It was notably nominated for best sound editing at the 84th Academy Awards. The film is considered a cult film.
A man (referred to as "Driver") works as a mechanic, stunt double, stuntman, and getaway driver for a criminal in Los Angeles, California. His jobs are all run by auto garage owner Shannon, who persuades Jewish mobster Bernie Rose and his half-Italian partner Nino "Izzy" Paolozzi to buy a car so the driver can race. The pilot meets his new neighbor, Irene, and becomes closer to her and her young son, Benicio. Their relationship is interrupted when Irene's husband, Standard Gabriel, arrives after his release from prison. He is attacked by an Albanian gangster, Chris Cook, who asks him to rob a pawnshop for $40,000 to repay his debt, and threatens to attack Benicio and Irene. Learning of this, the driver offers to serve as the getaway driver for the pawn shop heist.
While the driver waits outside the pawnshop with Blanche, Cook's accomplice, the store owner kills Standard. The driver and Blanche are then chased by another car. The driver hides with Blanche in a motel where he learns that the pawnbroker claims that Standard is the only culprit and that no money was stolen. He threatens Blanche when she lies about not seeing the second car. She admits that the bag contained a million dollars and that she and Cook intended to get the money back using the car that was chasing them. While Blanche is in the bathroom, she is killed with a shotgun by one of Cook's henchmen. The driver fatally stabs the shooter before killing another with the rifle.
At the garage, Shannon offers to hide the money, but the driver refuses. He finds Cook at a strip club and threatens to kill him. Cook reveals that Nino is behind the theft. The driver calls him and offers to give him back the money in exchange for being left out of the affair. Nino rejects his offer and sends a hitman to the driver and Irene's apartment building. The Driver tells an angry Irene of his involvement in her husband's death. When the couple enters the elevator, the driver notices the hitman. He kisses Irene, then brutally knocks her out, horrifying Irene. Knowing that someone must have leaked the driver's location for Nino to know his address, the driver confronts Shannon, who reveals that he called Bernie to tell him about the money, thus unintentionally mentioning Irene. Furious, the driver tells Shannon to run away, warning her that Nino will be sure to hunt them both down.
At his pizzeria, Nino reveals to Bernie that a Philadelphia mobster from the "East Coast Italian Mafia" has hidden the money at the pawn shop and plans to use it to set up a new operation. Since anyone connected to the heist could lead the East Coast Italian Mafia to them, they must kill everyone involved. He convinces Bernie to follow his plan. Bernie murders Cook, who is the only witness to their agreement. After Shannon refuses to divulge the driver's whereabouts at the auto shop, Bernie slashes his forearm with a razor, killing him.
Furious and distressed to find Shannon's body in the garage, the Driver disguises himself with a rubber stunt mask, follows Nino from the pizzeria to the Pacific Coast Highway and crashes his car onto a beach. The Driver chases Nino to the ocean and drowns him. He calls Irene and tells her he's not coming back, also letting her know that she and Benicio were the best part of his life. The driver meets Bernie, who promises that Irene will be safe in exchange for the money. After giving him the money, Bernie stabs him in the stomach before the driver pulls out his own knife and stabs Bernie to death. The driver manages to escape, while Bernie's body lies in the parking lot next to the money. Irene knocks on the door of the driver's apartment and leaves when no one answers. Although seriously injured, the driver plunges into the night.
