Drive
2011 · TMDB 7.6
Directed by Nicolas Winding Refn
Driver is a skilled Hollywood stuntman who moonlights as a getaway driver for criminals. Though he projects an icy exterior, lately he's been warming up to a pretty neighbor named Irene and her young son, Benicio. When Irene's husband gets out of jail, he enlists Driver's help in a million-dollar heist. The job goes horribly wrong, and Driver must risk his life to protect Irene and Benicio from the vengeful masterminds behind the robbery.
Why it matters
A Hollywood stunt driver by day and getaway driver by night, the unnamed protagonist finds his code tested when he becomes involved with a neighbour and her family. The neon-lit Los Angeles becomes a canvas for his silent moral struggle.
