I have no expectations either way! I haven't even watched the trailer! (I don't watch trailers anymore if they can be avoided.) I'm willing to be surprised by Nicholas Driving Refn, whose earlier films sounded like the bleakest horseshit imaginable. Maybe Hollywood will save him.

I like the Australian dude more, tho I have no memory of him in two Sith Wars movies. I do think that any film that inspires AO Scott to write "Sometimes you just have to strip down to your shorts and beat somebody senseless" should be patronized.Then again, I have no time to see 'regular' movies.

He also told the story of getting Ryan Gosling to do the film, for which he didn’t yet have the story. They went to dinner, and Winding-Refn, who doesn’t drive, asked Gosling to drive him home.
“There was this awkward silence between us. Ryan turns on the radio. It’s soft rock -- REO Speedwagon, ‘I can’t fight this feeling.’ And I start to cry. Literally. Tears falling down my cheek.
“Ryan is thinking how the fuck do I get him out of my car? And I start singing the song. It’s foreplay. I’m really into it. I slapped my knee. And turned to Ryan in car, and I scream in his face, music so loud -- I got it!
“It’s a man driving around in a car at night listening to music, that’s his emotional release.”
That became the film, "Drive," which opens in the fall.

I saw it, too. It was a multigenerational crime drama, which really confused the women behind me who didn't read a plot synopsis and exclaimed "I thought it was going to be a chick flick!" when the credits rolled. They were traumatized.

yeah ive been hearing people say gosling's part of the film was the best but i didnt think so. felt like same old, same old to me. and it didnt seem appropriate to recycle his Drive mannerisms for luke. i dug the modern day part of it because of how nicely observed the interactions between the two kids was - felt p true to how teenage boys talk to each other
coop section wasnt anything fresh either but it was funny seeing all these swinging dick character actors suddenly popping up in what felt like such a sparse story. appreciated his starter jacket and dad jeans look more than gosling's celeb trying to be photographed at coachella in 2013 thing. get your damn zubaz and artfully unlaced combat boots out of here

heres a story that cracked me up
You gave Dane DeHaan his first Metallica CD to get into character.DEREK CIANFRANCE: Really? Can I tell you something that's crazy? Lars Ulrich, he was my hero growing up. I wanted to be like him. I played the drums. So I make Blue Valentine, I'm up in Schenectady, and I get a text message, "Hey, Derek, it's Lars Ulrich. I just saw your movie, and it blew me away!" He says, "I'm going to go to every rooftop I can in San Francisco and tell people about it." And I was like, "You don't know this, but man, I'm only ... I stopped playing the drums because I knew I would never be as good as you. I thought maybe I could make movies the same way you play the drums, with integrity and aggression and passion and fire." So he became a friend! He had a movie tent at a music festival in Atlantic City, and he showed Blue Valentine to a bunch of sweaty kids with their shirts off at a Metallica concert! It was a really strange manifested dream come true.

The title is the English meaning of the city of Schenectady, New York, which is derived loosely from a Mohawk word for "place beyond the pine plains."[6][7]
movie was good, a plot was a little too cute by half but i dug the acting, the pacing, the structure
i dug the modern day part of it because of how nicely observed the interactions between the two kids was - felt p true to how teenage boys talk to each other
