“Drive My Car is a compelling portrait of a man facing up to the ghosts of his past. It’s a film which takes the viewer on a journey which is full of small and important interactions. It’s exhilarating to watch. Hamaguchi is like a master craftsman gradually constructing his masterpiece. Drive My Car is an enthralling piece of cinema.” Rob Adams, Back Seat Mafia
