Ryan Gosling-where should I start

Okay so this guy named Ryan Gosling who I never heard of (kidding) has 3 movies out this year. "Crazy Stupid Love", "Drive", and "Ides of March" I really want to get into his acting and see what the hype is all about, because he seems like he has talent, but where should I start. Whats the one movie I need to see first, "The Notebook", his oscar nominee "Half Nelson", "The Believer" or one of his new ones. Help me out!

They say he's great in The Believer, but I still haven't seen that. A lot of people will recommend The Notebook to start with, but I personally suggest Half Nelson. And definitely don't miss Lars and the Real Girl or Blue Valentine, if you haven't seen them. Gosling is an extraordinary actor, and he showed even more layers of his greatness in Drive.

Agree with all of the above. Start with Half Nelson!

lotr23 says it all.Gosling is a great actor.I think Drive is his best performance so far,but he was exccelent in Half Nelson,Lars,Blue Valentine and All Good Things.

My personal fave was Lars and the Real Girl. He was good in Half Nelson but I didn't like the movie.
