Devin & James are back in the Den with a doozy of a double feature! This time we're driving along the wrong side of the tracks with a couple of hard-nosed, highly-stylized neo-noir crime movies. THIEF (1981) and DRIVE (2011) feel like they share DNA (along with THE DRIVER (1978), which gets more than an honorable mention from us). With plots that seem deceptively simple on the surface, these films feature characters with a ton of rage brewing beneath what's visible up top. James Caan and Ryan Gosling are at their peak here, as are the rest of the brilliant ensemble casts, which features the likes of Robert Prosky, Tuesday Weld, Willie Nelson, James Belushi, Albert Brooks, Carey Mulligan, Bryan Cranston, Ron Perlman, Christina Hendricks, and Oscar Isaac! Under the expert direction of Michael Mann and Nicolas Winding Refn, respectively, these films are must-sees for everybody who loves cinema where the rubber meets the road.
