I very much enjoy my freedom creatively but I also would love to make one of those big Hollywood films that costs a lot of money and has a lot of people running around with cell phones and all that insanity.

The kind of group mentality that we had lived under since the Second World War is starting to erupt, and the craving for individualism is now much stronger. It's not as taboo anymore, as it was when I was younger.
Nicolas Winding Refn

I never desired to really go to Hollywood and make films, and purely because I want my entire control, which I'm used to having.

How can creativity be bad? You can have, I liked it or I didn't like it, but, in the end, it's an individual experience. How can you even begin to define that? I find that sometimes extremely arrogant and counter-productive.

I was in Hollywood. It's the mythology heart. It's where all the European films came in the '30s and '40s. The marriage between Europe and Hollywood has always been the best when it works.

When you make something that everyone likes, it's very easy to say, Well, I'll just repeat that. Because that was easy. I have a formula. But creatively, it's not very interesting.

[The Neon Demon] was more my own fascination with beauty. It's my children's fascination beauty.

I love films, I love movies, I love television, I love television series, I love the internet, I love anything that enhances images. But most of all, I love, love movies.

I don't know if power seduces less or more. I think power is a constant evolving mechanism that, since the dawn of time, on one level corrupts and on another level does not. But I think, no matter what, mutates.

I can't make a film that I don't feel comfortable with.

You must understand that violence in a movie is only a tool. If it's used badly, it will be horrible. If it's used correctly, it can be very interesting. But, essentially, it's just a tool.

Sometimes I just play the theme from Arthur. It reminds me of my childhood in New York and I just love it.
Nicolas Winding Refn
Image
Beauty is on one level pure surface, and on the other hand, it's the most complex subject that we can touch upon because it says everything about us as people. It's a subject we very quickly begin to argue about. I think that's so interesting.

I love watching the superhero movies and I would love to make one.

I have not seen Batman v Superman, unfortunately. It hasn't been on the plane, as I've been flying a lot.
