His jobs are all managed by auto shop owner Shannon, who = persuades Jewish-American mobster Bernie Rose and his half-Italian partner = Nino "Izzy" Paolozzi to purchase a car for the Driver to race. The Driver m= eets his new neighbor, Irene, and grows close to her and her young son, Ben= icio. Their relationship is interrupted when Irene's husband, Standard Gabr= iel, arrives after his release from prison. Standard owes protection money = from his time in prison and is assaulted by Albanian gangster Chris Cook, w= ho demands that Standard rob a pawn shop for $40,000 to pay off the debt, t= hreatening that otherwise he will hurt Benicio and Irene. Learning this, th= e Driver offers to act as the getaway driver for the pawn shop robbery.</di= v><div></div><div></div><div>Enraged and agonized at finding Shannon's corp= se at the auto shop, the Driver disguises himself with a rubber stuntman's = mask, follows Nino from the pizzeria to the Pacific Coast Highway and rams = his car onto a beach. The Driver chases Nino towards the ocean and drowns h= im. He calls Irene and tells her that he will not return, also letting her = know that she and Benicio were the best part of his life. The Driver meets = Bernie, who promises that Irene will be safe in exchange for the money. Upo= n receiving the money, Bernie stabs him in the stomach before the Driver pu= lls out his own knife and stabs Bernie to death. The Driver manages to esca= pe, while Bernie's corpse lies in the parking lot next to the cash. Irene k= nocks on the Driver's apartment door and walks away when no one answers. Al= though severely wounded, the Driver drives into the night.</div><div></div>= <div></div><div>I was very taken with this little crime story that James Sa= llis wrote. I felt that the way the world was presented in the book demande= d that its true grit be retained in the script. The grit comes from seeing = the world from the point of view of the driver in the car. It's those eleme= nts that I felt were critical to retain to make this film a very unique cin= ematic experience.</div><div></div><div></div><div>When Refn read the first= screenplay for Drive, he was more intrigued by the concept of a man having= a split personality, being a stuntman by day and a getaway driver at night= , than the plot of the story.[14] Believing that the director might be inti= midated by the script, as it was unlike anything he had done before, Goslin= g had concerns about whether Refn wanted to participate. Refn took on the p= roject without hesitation.[14]</div><div></div><div></div><div>The film was= made on a production budget of about $15 million and shot in various parts= of Los Angeles, beginning on September 25, 2010.[8][23] Locations were pic= ked by Refn while Gosling drove him around the city at night. At the direct= or's request, Los Angeles was picked as the shooting location due to budget= constraints.[24] Refn moved into a plush Los Angeles home and insisted tha= t the cast members and screenwriter Amini move in with him. They would work= on the script and film all day, then watch films, edit, or drive at night.= [25] Refn asked that the editing suite be placed in his home as well.[8] Wi= th a shooting script of 81 pages, Refn and Gosling continued to trim down d= ialogue during filming.[15]</div><div></div><div></div><div>Car scenes were= filmed with a "biscuit rig," a camera car rig developed for the film Seabi= scuit (2003). It allowed stunt driver Robert Nagle to steer the car, freein= g Gosling to concentrate on acting.[35] Consistent with Refn's usual visual= style, wide-angle lenses were used extensively by cinematographer Sigel, w= ho avoided hand-held camera work.[34] Preferring to keep the film more "gro= unded" and authentic, he also avoided the use of computer-generated imagery= (CGI). Budget restrictions were also a factor in this decision.[36]</div><= div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>Altho= ugh many stunt drivers are credited, Gosling did some stunts himself,[37] a= fter completing a stunt driving car crash course.[38] During the production= , Gosling re-built the 1973 Chevrolet Malibu used in the film, taking it ap= art and putting it back together.[39] Filming concluded on November 12, 201= 0.[23][40]</div><div></div><div></div><div>The Driver has been compared to = the Man With No Name, a character portrayed by Clint Eastwood in Sergio Leo= ne's Dollars Trilogy, because he almost never speaks, communicating mostly = non-verbally.[44] The Driver's meager dialogue is not designed to present h= im as tough, but to soften him. Refn chose to give The Driver very little d= ialogue and have him drive around listening to synth-pop music, taking cont= rol when it counts.[47] Peter Debruge of Variety opined that what The Drive= r lacks in psychology, he makes up through action and stylish costuming.[37= ] The Driver's wardrobe, in particular the satin jacket with the logo of a = golden scorpion on the back, was inspired by the band KISS, and Kenneth Ang= er's 1964 experimental film Scorpio Rising.[39] Refn sees the former as the= character's armor, and the logo as a sign of protection.[49] According to = reviewer Peter Canavese, the jacket is a reference to the fable of The Scor= pion and the Frog, mentioned in the film, which evokes its use in the Orson= Welles film Mr. Arkadin.[50]</div><div></div><div></div><div>The speed lim= it is 35 mph in most places, so feel free to roll down your windows, feel t= he breeze, and experience every curve and turn of this beautiful drive.
