>Haha why are they just staring at each other?
What's funny about this board's fascination with this movie is that they don't realize how normal people act when they're attracted. They assume that Gosling is acting like a "robot" or "autistic" because they've never actually stared silently into a girl's eyes while she nervously stared back.
They've never been close to this situation, so to them it seems unnatural. But the fact is, Refn captured real human emotion here.
