What is love, why can’t we see it? why in real life does it so often fail? why is love not enough? How do you know love? Does love care?Is it wrong to use the word ‘love’ so freely, maybe that freedom is what condemns love to fail. I’m not sure how to sum up love in a humanly way, I don’t expect to or even try. I don’t even know how to make sense of anything that surrounds love so I wont begin too.

I reckon you could have changed the title of “Drive” to “No Comment” and people would be like yeah, makes sense.I thought it was brilliant, it showed a bit of class, it worked, the filmography and camera shots all captured the feel of the movie. It was gritty and dark, without being over the top. The music moved with the story and without being too heroic or cliché at the end it faded out just nicely.I think it was a movie makers movie and those going to see a film with high speed chases would leave thinking “what the f…” It reminded me of “the wrestler”, or maybe even […]
