If you haven’t seen Ryan Gosling in Drive yet, do yourself a favor and visit your local cineplex this weekend – or tonight. Channeling his inner ’80s Michael Mann and John Carpenter, director Nicolas Winding Refn (Bronson, Valhalla Rising) has carved out 90 minutes of pure cinematic glory. It’s a sparse tale about a Hollywood stuntman, who doubles as a hired wheelman, dealing with a heist gone wrong. Both Gosling and Albert Brooks deliver head-turning performances, while Refn solidifies himself as a director to follow. On top of it, there’s one scorcher of a soundtrack, featuring an original score by Cliff Martinez and songs by Kavinsky & Lovefoxxx, The Chromatics, Desire, College (w/ Electric Youth), and Riziero Ortolani (w/Katyna Ranieri). Believe us: You see this film, you’ll want the soundtrack (and that goddamn jacket, too).
But, Consequence of Sound has a special giveaway to save you the effort. Here’s what’s up for grabs:
