Review of Drive My Car (2021) by Rory O'connor for The Film Stage — 13 Jul 2021
It’s a graceful, aching film that sculpts and stretches Murakami’s story into an enchanting three-hour epic (my, do the minutes fly by) about trauma and mourning, shared solitude, and the possibility of moving on.
The narrative also doubles as a lovely ode to the car itself, and the strange ways that people open up when cocooned inside them.
