I also believe on a practical level, if you're taking time away from people, besides entertaining them, I think it's important that there's something to react to.

I always think once you have the lead protagonist, you cast around that character.

I just think it was time [in THe Neon Demon]to do a film about women. But not just women, I wanted to do a movie about a teenage girl. It was a great counter to the masculinity of Drive.

[Liv Corfixen] very much part of my life in that she's everything in my life and we found a way to use each other much more on a creative level as well. She was kind of the idea for this movie so I wanted to acknowledge that. She gave me the original idea to make the film.

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 like doing the promotional work. It's part of the film's process. Cannes was very wonderful to premiere.

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.

I think that experiencing through art is a wonderful way to expand the horizon and everything around it.
Nicolas Winding Refn

In the end, we're just showmen. But, I think that it's an important factor. Not to be anything else but clear about that - for me, creativity is an important part of our evolution. Art has probably done more good for the world than war. But they're equally powerful. They both create revolutions.

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.

I don't do drugs, and so music very much gets me going. When I do something, I think, If it was a piece of music, what would it be?

It was a very comfortable and personal relationship [Cliff Martinez ].'The Neon Demon'is our third movie and the music has never been as important as for this movie.
