Le Samouraï
Both films sit with longing and figuring out who you are. The world both films live in revolves around corrupt institutions. Both move the same way too, cold and detached, melancholic, and slow burn.
Driver is a skilled Hollywood stuntman who moonlights as a getaway driver for criminals. Though he projects an icy exterior, lately he's been warming up to a pretty neighbor named Irene and her young son, Benicio. When Irene's husband gets out of jail, he enlists Driver's help in a million-dollar heist. The job goes horribly wrong, and Driver must risk his life to protect Irene and Benicio from the vengeful masterminds behind the robbery.
These foreign films share the same emotional core, themes, and structural feel as Drive. Every one of them has confirmed English subtitles or dubbing.
