Once you’ve seen Gus Van Sant’s Restless, you realize the distributor shuffle the film has done over the past several months says a lot about what kind of film it is. Is it a movie better suited as a specialty film housed at Sony Pictures Classics, or is it more of a slightly comical, but more serious romantic drama for Columbia Pictures? Sony chose to hand it over to the former after it originally had a January release date with the latter. Do they have it figured out?The dilemma Sony faced is represented in this tonally conflicted drama that never really seems to figure itself out. Just when you think its found its way it takes a left, carrying only fragments of its former self with it. By the time you get to the end you’ve been jerked in so many directions there’s very little left to take with you. Some could argue this is a result of the film falling in line with the path of its protagonists, and I’d agree, but it isn’t a path that necessarily ends up leading anywhere of much consequence, and certainly not one we haven’t traveled before.Drive is a 2011 American action drama film directed by Nicolas Winding Refn that is adapted from James Sallis's 2005 novel of the same name. After an unsuccessful attempt to create a film adaption made by Universal Studios, this project was greenlit in early 2010. When Ryan Gosling, who plays the unnamed principal character, signed on, he was allowed to choose the director. A fan of his work, the actor chose Refn. Before filming began towards the end of 2010, Carey Mulligan, Ron Perlman, Bryan Cranston, and Christina Hendricks joined the cast.
