In addition to the already existing good answers, another theme of the movie, with a strong connection to current political and social problems, is of course terrorism. Especially how to deal with pe …

Well, first of all the movie's story is based on James Sallis' novel and he doesn't have a name in there either (it must be even harder for a narrator to call him driver all the time ;)). So in additi …
