Drive (2011)
In Drive, Ryan Gosling stars as a man of little words who works as a car mechanic, part-time stunt driver and sometime getaway driver. The opening scene was far and away my favorite, as Gosling eludes police with his skillful driving. I was actually surprised at how little driving was actually in this film. Most of the film centers on his relationship with his new neighbor, well played by Carey Mulligan, and her son. Bryan Cranston also stars and is, as usual, brilliant.
Gosling was perfectly cast in my opinion. He’s amazing at acting without words .. his facial expressions and body language convey multitudes. I’ve become a huge fan of his.
