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

We live in a beauty-obsessed culture, which on one hand is absolutely fabulous, but on the flip side, is also dangerously extreme.

I don't drive because I failed eight times and never got my license.

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.

Doing your first film, it's very important that it's a commercial success, because that gives you a couple times to experiment until you have to hit the jackpot again.

I feel Amazon is really bringing films into the future. So for me it was the best of both worlds.

Sometimes I just play the theme from Arthur. It reminds me of my childhood in New York and I just love it.

The artificial world that we create through images will essentially become real.
Nicolas Winding Refn

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.

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.

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
Image
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.
Nicolas Winding Refn
Image
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.
Nicolas Winding Refn
Image
I always think once you have the lead protagonist, you cast around that character.
Nicolas Winding Refn
Image
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.
Nicolas Winding Refn
Image
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.
Nicolas Winding Refn
Image
I think that's the struggle of our normality is that we have oppressed desires because of what is accepted and not accepted in society.
Nicolas Winding Refn
Image
I think that television has become really, really interesting, in terms of character development. You can have 13 hours to develop a character, as opposed to 25 minutes in a movie. That excites me.

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.

But once you get down to reality, there's no one to play her and there's no movie. It would be ridiculous.
