Why did he bother putting on the mask if nobody saw him?
Wouldn't the gangsters have freaked out and shot him if they saw some freaking weirdo in a mask staring at them?
Nino doesn't know what Driver looks like, so Nino could realistically think "ah it's just some dumb fuck who doesn't realise we're closed."

Because the audience wouldn't care who he was till he put the mask on.

Nino DOES know what he looks like, because he met them all at the garage. Chris the pimp also would have told him.

>because he met them all at the garage.
Except he didn't meet or see Driver
But nino did know what he looked like.
And it's to signify a full conversion into his psychotic scorpion side, as he realizes his dream to be a hollywood hero, thus the lighting and the unfitting blissful music. He was never able to be anything other than a stunt double, so he lived out his fantasies as the driver.
>what are you gonna do, huh? Ho best those guys up for me?
That's why the last he sees of the girl is when he gives her a goodbye kiss before making the change.
In other words this director is about the themes, and not as much about the logic. If you watch the follow uo film he made to this, that becomes very clear

AAAAAND A REEEEAAL HERO~
REEEAAL HU-MAN BEING~
>>67839659
god damn that's some of the worst fucking CGI i've ever seen. who is that supposed to be? it looks like a mix between stone cold steve austin and ben kingsley.
>>67839659
>Why did he bother putting on the mask if nobody saw him?
Because he's a big guy.
For you
>>67839743
He's a big actor
Gonna need you fags to recommend me shit like this and Nightcrawler
Nobody knew who he was before he put on the mask
>>67840120
So you're saying... he put on the mask so that people WOULD know who he is?

Simple: Autism
A real human being and a hero

The Guest, I'd highly recommend it if you like Drive
>>67839953
>not saying "human bean"
you fucked up
>>67839990
it's not cgi you autist
>>67839898
wheres the follow up film?
In order to commit a crime he had to mask his emotions.
He had to deny what it is be human to do immoral things
That is what it means to be immoral
That is what it means to drive

As long as you go in knowing the story to oedipus you shouldn't be as confused as most retarded critics are.
Not that it doesn't have flaws. It has a lot. Really well shot though.
>>67839659
Do you at least get why he's putting a mask on, thematically
He's a superhero
Drive is Literally capeshit
I get the whole scorpion and the frog thing, and I get why it had to happen
but it's still my only problem with an otherwise masterpiece. It just felt so dumb for him to meet up with him and get stabbed like a chump. Follow up scene was umph though
because refn is an anti semite
the aryan skinhead kills the jew by baptizing him in the pacific ocean
>>67839659
Because he can't tell the future. How would he know if someone would see him or not before he goes through with it? Better safe than sorry.
he put on the mask because he's a fucking psychopath
>I won't call the cops
>I wish you did
Why did she say this?
>>67843784
I cant remember. Was she a slut or married?
>>67843709
Well that is a very logical reason
