Drive Film

The Driver

Played By: Ryan Gosling
"If I drive for you, you get your money. You tell me where we start, where we're going, where we're going afterwards. I give you five minutes when we get there. Anything happens in that five minutes and I'm yours. No matter what. Anything a minute on either side of that and you're on your own. I don't sit in while you're running it down. I don't carry a gun. I drive."

Irene

Played By: Carey Mulligan

Armor-Piercing Slap
Broken Bird
Girl Next Door
Horrible Judge of Character: Although it's easy to sympathize with her, she did manage to get involved first with Standard and then the Driver. But they're either charming or seemingly harmless, so it's hard to fault her too deeply.
Morality Pet

Benecio

Played By: Kaden Leos

Standard Gabriele

Played By: Oscar Isaac
"You know, we're here celebrating but it's a shameful thing... what I did. And I have a lot of making up to do to everyone. But second chances are rare. Right? And that's worth celebrating."

The Atoner
Butt Monkey
Chew Toy
Hidden Depths
Redemption Failure
Robbing the Mob Bank: Although he didn’t know.
Sacrificial Lamb

Shannon

Played By: Bryan Cranston
"What happened to all the ashtrays in this town?"

Bernie Rose

Played By: Albert Brooks
"My partner is a belligerent asshole with his back up against a wall, and now, so am I."

Nino

Played By: Ron Perlman
"Take a fucking hike. I want to talk to my partner. [pause] I'm just fucking with you. How you doing, Shannon? How's the fucking leg?"

Big Bad Wannabe: He's certainly an intimidating criminal, but he wants more.
The Dragon: Sort of to Bernie. They're pretty much on equal footing, but Bernie is smarter and savvier. Nino tends to be more subservient to Bernie and doesn't seem able to succeed much without him. Played more straight with the East Coast Mafia.
The Dog Bites Back: Never seen firsthand in the movie, but he was the dog for the East Coast Mafia and his attempt to steal from them is largely motivated by anger.
Faux Affably Evil: Thinks he's a charmingly evil criminal boss. He's only three of those four things.
Hidden Depths
Jerkass
Motive Rant
Smug Snake
Those Two Bad Guys: with Bernie.
Too Dumb to Live

Blanche

Played By: Christina Hendricks

Beauty Is Never Tarnished: Averted. Hard.
Blue Eyes
Boom! Headshot!
Fiery Redhead: Averted. She's quite cool and emotionless.
The Stoic
- Not So Stoic
Too Dumb to Live

Cook

Played By: James Biberi
