I never saw Nicholas Winding Refn's Pusher
trilogy, although folks I know say that they're "required viewing", and so they're at the top of my Netflix queue. Not that I need to see them in order to gauge Refn as a filmmaker with a unique vision after his last two efforts, Bronson
(featuring Tom Hardy's true breakout role) and Valhalla Rising
. One of the movies I'm looking forward to most this year is Refn's star-studded heist flick, Drive. Set to debut at Cannes in just a few days, it stars Ryan Gosling as a stunt car driver who moonlights as a wheelman, but finds himself in hot water when a job goes bad. Carey Mulligan, Albert Brooks, Ron Perlman, Bryan Cranston, Oscar Isaac, and Christina Hendricks also star. A bunch of new images have been released ahead of it's premier. Check those out below, followed by a fantastic 2-minute clip from the film.Thanks to The Playlist for these shots.
