It's an ending that I interpret as being a kind of Shane-like ending in which the last cowboy of the Wild West is mortally wounded and going off on his own, presumably to die, and never be seen again.
That's how I saw the ending.

I don't think Drive needs a sequel. I also don't think I need to see The Driver pop up anywhere else, but I trust Refn to know what he's doing, so I guess we'll see.

you don't need to watch it again, you were right the first time

No re-watch again and again. Great movie.

I don't know how it'll play out but if it were up to me they'd make a prequel. There are so many cool adventures the Driver could have.

I'm interested in reading the sequel to the book. I didn't read 'Drive', I only watched the movie. To anyone that read 'Drive' and 'Driven'... do I need to read the first book to get a good handle on the second book or will I be pretty caught up just by watching the movie?

It can be part of Refn's "Avengers" flick - Driver, Bronson, Frank, and One-Eye.

I want to see Drive but after seeing Carey Mulligan's performance in Shame I don't want to see another movie with her in it. The "Drive" soundtrack sounds great though.

Maybe it wasn't the performance, more the script she was working with. But her character in that movie seemed like a bad cliche and was annoying.

I can't believe how long and horrible it was too listen to her sing New York, New York.

Then again I didn't like her in the Wall Street sequel either.

I understand that Ryan Gosling is going to do some crazy shit for her in this film. i would think if he was going to risk his life for a woman it would be the one from Mad Men.

Carey Mulligan is much hotter than Christina Hendricks. Regardless, while Mulligan has a good amount of screen time she barely has any dialog in Drive. In fact barely anyone has much dialog in the movie, they all talk like they're working through stage 1 of hooked on phonics.

Great movie though.

You mean the fat, red headed, trailer trash chick? Pass.

Where'd you get trailer trash from?

The fat part is disputable though.

I dunno, I could kind of see her fellating Matthew McConaughey's fried chicken.

...that's a lot of women, man. He's a good lucking fucker and a sorely underrated actor due to his overall career choices. Thankfully he's choosing some pretty good roles lately.

I thought she was great in both films. I loved her singing New York, New York. Not so much the way she sings it, but the mood it sets & the impact it had on her brothers character. Shit it almost made me cry because you can sense the loneliness & pain between the 2 characters.

People have seen Shame?


I'm still waiting for it to be rentable anywhere or even go on sale.

You can find the NC-17 version at Blockbuster if those things still exist.

Got Cinemax? They've been showing it a lot recently. NC-17 too.

I remember her character in Drive looking and acting like the definition of trailer trash. I could be misremembering though. Nevertheless, she is definitely a fat redhead.

I haven't seen a Blockbuster in at least a year
