Baby Driver is an action film written and directed by Edgar Wright. First released on June 28, 2017, it tells the story of a young Atlanta-based getaway driver, played by Ansel Elgort (pictured), who is on a quest for freedom from a life of crime with his lover Debora (Lily James). The film also features Kevin Spacey, Jon Hamm, Eiza González, Jamie Foxx and Jon Bernthal in supporting roles. Baby Driver was a project Wright had contemplated for over two decades, and his early directing experience shaped his ambitions for the project. Filming took place over four months, using stunts, choreography and in-camera shooting. Baby Driver was praised by some critics, but the characterization and scriptwriting drew mixed responses. During its initial theatrical run, the film grossed $226 million at the global box office, boosted by word-of-mouth support and fatiguing interest in blockbuster franchises. Wright has completed a script for a possible sequel. (Full article...)
