"First viewing - March 13th HBO Max While the 3 hour runtime was initially intimidating, the good news is that Drive My Car is never a slog. I was hooked from the start & it mostly kept up its momentum up the entire time. The characters are very well realized, & I'd gladly hang out with them again. If there's a weak point it's with the final scene, but that may just be me. Perhaps next time around I'll appreciate its more. Totally worth a look regardless."

Asian paljastamisen sijaan elämää jatketaan normaalisti, kunnes vaimo kuolee äkillisesti. Miestä jää kalvamaan epävarmuus rakkauden aitoudesta, ja tästä saadaankin kivaa parisuhdekäsityksen ja rakkausnormien haastamista m"
