Yeah be l but even the most hardboiled noir string silent types had dialogue 🤷🏽 and even more so they had inner monologues so we knew how they felt about the world🤷🏽

I feel like Drive was a movie made because of the trope of Ryan Gosling 🤷🏽

Ryan Gosling himself even said for a long time up until they movie he felt like his roles were often "a robot shell of a man experiencing feelings through others reactions to him" and I think Nicholas Wendigo Refn was like... Actually.... Yeah.... Let's make you do nothing a whole movie and see if people sit through it.

Paul Chain’s ‘Fast One’ (the novel that solidified the hardboiled genre)

Also I view this flick in the pulp/comic book realm of reality which makes it more reasonable.

That's an interesting angle. Comics.

But still for film. It just irks me.

Every 5 minutes in that movie I can't help but scream AND THEN WHAT
