"Drive" is probably to violent for many FFL'ers but what a masterpiece!  
And at that is it "very transcendental" with a lot of silence and slow 
moving.  The cast of Ryan Gosling, Carey Mulligan, Albert Brooks (who 
plays a villain for a change), Bryan Cranston and Ron Perlman deliver 
outstanding performances.  Director Nicolas Refn gets great performances 
even with actors who have minor roles including Christina Hendricks 
("Mad Men").  Gosling plays a movie stunt driver who gets in trouble 
when he helps his neighbor.  There are some pretty amazing car stunts in 
the film.  This is a film in the style of the old Steve McQueen movies 
like "Getaway."

I watched the film on Bluray which includes some interesting extras and 
an interview Refn.
