Last night Brent and I watched Drive starring Ryan Gosling and Carey Mulligan. We were both expecting it to be really upbeat and more of a thriller. Alas, it was not. I'm not exactly sure how to describe the tone of this movie. Ryan plays a very quiet, yet passionate character. Carey Mulligan is his "love interest" yet, they hardly speak more than 10 words to each other! There are plenty of silent moments that I felt were awkward. The music is 80's, or modern day hipster...or a mixture of both. It's definitely odd. The movie was also super bloody and gory. Let's just say it's definitely NOT what I expected with the slow simple beginning. Maybe I missed the point of the movie, or maybe it was just a really odd and boring film. If you see it, let me know what you think!
