I love watching the superhero movies and I would love to make one.
Nicolas Winding Refn
I certainly believe that creativity must be an experience. If I'm to steal time away from people, we should give them something to react to.

The first person I ever described the film [The Neon Demon] to was Christina Hendricks [who has a cameo in the movie]. We were having dinner in LA and she asked me what I wanted to do next and I said, I want to do a horror movie. And she goes, What's it going to be about? And I said, A lot of blood and high heels.
Nicolas Winding Refn

Nicolas Winding Refn
I just close my eyes and I fantasize what I would like to see.
Nicolas Winding Refn
Financing films that are demanding is a task, in itself. Because people are so afraid of taking any kind of chance, because they're afraid the audience isn't going to respond. But the audience is so hungry for anything that's a bit original, personal, or different.
Nicolas Winding Refn
The artificial world that we create through images will essentially become real.
Nicolas Winding Refn
I think everybody's looking for religion to believe in. I think we all need faith.
Nicolas Winding Refn
I can't make a film that I don't feel comfortable with.
Nicolas Winding Refn
I like doing the promotional work. It's part of the film's process. Cannes was very wonderful to premiere.
Nicolas Winding Refn
The future is not about what you do, it's about what you stand for.
Nicolas Winding Refn
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.
Nicolas Winding Refn
I always think once you have the lead protagonist, you cast around that character.
Nicolas Winding Refn
There will always be a theatrical experience because there will always be cinemas no matter what. It's like there will always be theaters to have stage plays in.
Nicolas Winding Refn
I think the idea was to make a horror film that became a science-fiction film with a lot of melodramatic tropes.
Nicolas Winding Refn
I woke up one day and I realized I wasn't born beautiful, but my wife was, so I decided to make a horror film about it: what it would be like to be born beautiful.
Nicolas Winding Refn
