The Driver - 1978 - 3½ Stars

Actors: Ryan O'Neal, Bruce Dern
Director: Walter Hill

I shouldn't write anything about The Driver except a single sentence, because that's pretty much all the speaking Ryan O'Neal does in the film. If you like car chases in downtown Los Angeles and Ryan O'Neal being a badass, this is the movie for you. I happen to like these things. Apparently the film was heavily influenced by Le Samourai, which is something that a person who has a film blog should notice. Maybe I was just too caught up in the car chases, which rival The French Connection and Ronin.
