"What d'you do?" "...I drive." Most iconic line.

He's just reserved and shy. He easily feels the pains of the world so he keeps his emotional distance from it. Good god it's not a syndrome.

I loved the part where he said "it's drivin' time" and drived over Irene

Irene is the healing, bright, light for the driver's dark soul.

The way they portrayed Irene feels like a woman from a dream who you loved dearly only to wake up and barely remembering her face and the things that happened in said dream. I’m truly in love with her character

This scene is so romantic, even though the words are just like a normal conversation, their body language speaks differently.

Like many, I found the long pauses in the living room scene frustratingly awkward the first time I saw it, but on rewatch it's perfect - it's like they both know they've found the real thing, and know they both know it, and are slightly embarrassed to even have to go through the motions of making small talk when something far deeper is being communicated effortlessly.

he's literally me

hes just a guy who does real shit, when you do real shit, you dont have to talk all the time. also its the nature of the film

I like the moment at 1:44 when she asks him if its dangerous the look on his face is as if it really means a lot to the Driver that shes so interested in him and he just stops and admires her. couldn't help but think that it was done on purpose where the wall behind Irene is red as if showing shes hot for him and the wall behind him is blue showing hes calm and cool

The way he stares at her...gives me chills!

I love Drive's incomplete love story between Irene and the driver.

God, these two were PERFECT in this movie. Great film. Great scene.

The end of this scene is subtly brilliant to me. Gosling said in an interview that they wanted to create a super-hero type character with the Driver... & his symbol being that scorpion on his jacket. Where he is looking down on Irene & her boy from a high vantage seems to connotate a growing sense of affection & protectiveness to me & his capability as a protecting/overwatching prescence is emphasised by that golden light bathing his symbol on back of his jacket. Perhaps I am seeing too much in it :)

Unless you looked like Ryan Gosling this would never be endearing in real life, giving her kid a toothpick, being silent and weird and giving one worded answers. She'd never let him in her place again.

I wish there was more movies like this.

8 years late but I love how theirs barely no dialogue in this scene but you can understand so much

He cuts the small talk for a brief moment just to look at her. This little pause felt very poetic to me.

quiet confidence

I'm a straight male. but even i was attracted to gosling in this movie. there was something about him in this movie that was just so cool, so mysterious. when this came out he was known as the notebook guy, and it became apparent that he was much much more than that.

*Locks the door straight after he leaves*

Wow, the way he's looking at her. It's intense. You can literally feel the tension between them. The music is so beautiful.

Driver: "Where should I put these bags of groceries?" Irene: "Uhh, in the kitchen"

Believe it, women are attracted to the quietly confident guys: doesn't do unnecessary small talk, only speaks when needed and is interesting when they do, and is playful and controlled when the mood calls for it. But also remember this only works if it's in your nature and your comfortable in your own skin with it.

"I drive." Wtf I drive too!? He's literally me

1:05 I always thought this is the coolest part of the movie when The driver is trying to get to to know more about her but the reality she still have a husband and a kid. The mirror is like a foreshadow of him never really get her. He was trying to play it cool because she's just a projection, of something he wishes he can reach out.

Her locking the door after he leaves is almost metaphorical. It has meaning. It’s her attempting to “lock him out” of her feelings because she’s starting to fall for him. But she has a husband so she’s conflicted. Beautiful scene, beautiful movie, beautiful music.

The most romantic scene is stomping hitman's head in the elevator, after kissing Irene

1:47 Couldn't breathe.. The way he looks at her is PERFECT!

1:24 the best part

this man is superb and cool as fuck

The Driver has quiet confidence.

Beautiful scene. She touch her lips at the end as if they had kissed

Real human bean

such phenomenal movie... i mean i cannot say i have ever watched something better in this matter. Amazing background music, the tension with so few words... Watching this for the first time was a real experience.

omg, That poor man drank tapwater, his pineal gland is toast

Drive is an amazing film and this scene is so emotional and so damn good and when you see him actually help this women out you see him actually want a new life and start and out of his life of crime you see him wanting to be something good you see he doesn't want to be the bad guy and when. She wants to here what he does for a living you see his dark world getting brighter

I watched this movie when I was 16,was too young too understand the underlying emotion in each scene,I watched it again few months ago and I am 23 now understand the meaning of each scene so more

The song (I Drive - Cliff Martinez) is amazing. It plays, among other, during their most intimate parts in the movie: this scene, while touching hands in the car, and in the iconic elevator scene.

1:28 this is what you came here for

.........................................................................................................................................................................................I drive.

Such little is said in this scene but you feel so much!!! When she seems concerned about the safety of his job he fully relaxes and admires her probably because he’s never had someone care about him before.

Real (I drive) (I’m Literally Ryan Gosling) (Real) (Hero)

I just noticed the mirror in the kitchen with a picture of Benicio and Standard and Ryan's reflection. This is also foreshadowing because he will soon be the protector.

There really is just something about this movie man... fuck I love every single frame of it...

Throughout this scene, The driver is Soaked in a Cold colour schemes of Blue, and a great ton of Shadows. He merges into his Dark and cool surrounding, with the complement of His dark and Cool Jacket. However, Irene is Framed in Bright and warm Coliur schemes, even when Driver and Irene switch directions, the camera manages to capture them in a Consistent, Cool and Warm Backgrounds. What stands out for me is the shot of Irene at 2:06 , with the window at the background, with An overflow of Sunshine in the room. And also, inthat shot, the Frame rates rise, hence it's slightly in slow motion. It's like a Moment, through the Driver's POV, of Capture. He stopped in time to analyze that moment and Save it in memory, and so goes for the audience, you and me. The Juxtaposition is simple yet great in this scene. I have always felt that there are films, to study, with A thin Plot, a very simple Script, but the visual Language goes really hard. For ex: Mad Max fury road, Blade runner 2049, Drive etc. Not to study from a writer's Point of View, but from a Filmmaker. It's beautiful

The woman wasn't attracted to the driver because of the way he spoke. The woman was lonely and tires of being the only parent in the household. The driver was kind and reliable. Perfect guy for her needs. The driver being lonely as well was looking for something that he can take care of. Throughout the movie, he's always trying to fix things, cars, his friend's money issues, the family next door etc.

1:56 It's only part time... my getaway driver gig is pretty safe and mellow.

He had a good time.

Ryan Gosling is so attractive in this movie, he did such a good job in his acting role here. So talented.

I love watching the minuscule facial twitches in Ryan Gosling's otherwise stoic face lol

Fuck this movie is good.

The jaw clinch after I drive. He’s anxious/annoyed. Partly because it’s a half truth I think and the life of the getaway driver takes away from what he thinks he can be. The “hero” the “real human being” my guy is a throwback and a forward when it comes to acting.

There is not much talking in this movie but this has got to be one of the most engaging movies I’ve seen

Man, there are still details that eluded me before: Benicio putting on that bloody mask is foreshadowing the drivers bloody face in the motel scene

OMG! I've literaly melted... Ryan's gaze so "I'm dying to kiss you right now"!

He likes her, but is also scared and nervous because she reminds him too much of Barbie.

That second he lounges & leans up and driver leans up.. that music is gorgeous

Definitely me in social situations-I talk to the point-I hate small talk and chatter, and I'd rather just get the job done. Being social is a waste of time. Still, I'm a nice person, just rather be quiet.

The way his face is dark in the reflection of the mirror as she says that's his father, that's a cool shot

My favourite scene from the movie is from the garage, when both gosling and Mulligan can't stop blushing.

Carey Mulligan has a real Julia Roberts type smile, it lights her whole face.

I drive

1:28 HE SAID IT HE SAID THE LINE

I’m on the sigma grindset right now. Remember folks. Be kind, be good and enjoy yourselves

"Thanks for the water"

Barbie: “So what do you do?” Ken: “I beach.”

They make a perfect couple... not much talkin but understand each other

i love this movie so much I CANT GET IN ENOUGH

Hey you wanna toothpick? Lol such a weird question. But since watching this movie I’ve been trying to quit smoking and I’ve been keeping a tooth pick in my mouth almost all day. It’s helped me quit smoking and makes me feel like a badass 😂

I just keep watching excerpts from this film in order to understand how It never gets old or my love of it change.

1:28 (me)

He's so damn cool

Dude, I don't care how pretty she is, if she has a kid and her man's in jail, don't just avoid her. Run! Lol.

She’s the best part of the movie.

They seem like a nice couple, specially the guy, I hope nothing wrong happens to them in an elevator!

Ryan gosling would be so perfect for Batman!

subtle but powerful

1:28 HE SAID THE THING!!!

Love this scene.. love this mooovie

i loved this awwww

I love the part where he says. It's driving time. And drives all over the place

I love this Movie so much

1:24 - What do you do? - I drive... * Shows up a drunk driver flying in the highway *

"I drive" - The Anti-hero

Best performance great actor

Ryan reminds me of a young Steve McQueen or Paul Newman in this movie.

The way you see him staring at the picture in the mirror

She's so pretty! I'm in love!

She is so beautiful

this reminds me of my ex it didn’t matter how good i was or how much i tried to save the world i guess i just wasn’t the one

1:23 -What do you do? -I drive

LOVE.... that's how it is....

Great film.. makes me so sad though.

Love the music

Omg she is literally me

I love her hair.

2:05 Dam she is so gorgeous. And this movie is awesome!

Does anyone know the name of the music playing from 02:40 ?? I'm sure it's one of Cliff Martinez's pieces from the OST, just can't pinpoint which one.

totally didnt fall in love with goslings character
