Drive

Nicolas Windign Refn is one of the most polemics directors in Hollywood. With few movies like Bronson (2009), Drive (2011) and Only God Forgives (2012), put his name in the world of cinema. He have many others movies, but this movies are the most famous because he use two amazing actors like Tom Hardy in Bronson and Ryan Gosling in Drive and Only God Forgives. And he have a very definite style.

I´m not sure that Drive are my favorite movie, maybe it´s impossible to me say one film. For me, decide about one film, depends of the moment, context and the quality of the film.

Drive, without doubts is a very special movie of a very special director, who condense in this film the perfect combination between the form and the history.

Since the first scene of Drive, i note that the treatment of the photography and the sound would be amazing.

Because the light, the movement and the color in each plane has the intention of represents something or say something to us. And the music that sounds is truly beautiful, because the soundtrack of the movie is one of the best that I heard in my life. It´s really incredible the work in this case, because Drive is a very silent movie, that shine for the absence of dialogs and the calm of the protagonist. Because Ryan Gosling say very few things in all the movie.... does not even says his name. But, we know perfectly well that his eyes and what we see in every shot tell us all what the story needs, what we need to understand.

The story is also very nice, it's based on a book, but I heard many people say that this adaptation is much better. Explains a driver of risky scenes in movies which is also mechanical. Of whom we know nothing more, until he meets a woman, the amazing Carey Mulligan, through which the protagonist gets into a lot of problems, where appears actors like Bryan Cranston (Breaking Bad) or Ron Perlman (Hellboy). These end up solving problems so incredible and filmed scenes of revenge and violence that leave us impressed.

I don´t want to say anymore about the movie, because i want that you see the movie.

Only i would say... You know the history about the scorpion and the frog?.
