Only God Forgives (2013) Nicolas Winding Refn, Ryan Gosling, Kristin Scott Thomas

oh man I couldn't stand that piece of shit

xp should say "& LATER he reads.." the neg review, yknow after hes made the fim

film!

I love the fact that there has been made three docs on Refn. I think at least one of them was made due to money problem. The guy can be so good, but when he fails, he fails hard.

I might have said this before, but the best 'doc' on Refn was this long interview he did over several nights on a weird Danish late night show some time ago. It was before Drive, before Bronson, I think, at a time where his carreer was going nowhere, and the whole interview was the host asking him to explain, in detail, how he ended up as such a failure. I remember Nicolas ended up breaking down in tears, which made the host smile gloatingly as if that was the entire point. Now, it was probably staged, but it's absolutely incredible. And I can't find it. And it needs to end up as a dvd-extra on something.

refn seems to be kind of positioning himself as a von trier-like "personality" as much as a film director, or at least that's how it appears from over here

I wish the last doc had shown how his wife despises his films; it looked like it was going to!

She's been in a couple of them, so I guess she likes those?

maybe she just likes hanging out w/ her husband.

Reminds me of Gilliam laughing as he tells us how his wife thinks his films have went to shit.

terry gilliam's wife OTM

Knew that was coming but apart from Brothers Grimm and bits of Parnassus, I disagree.

Cut-and-paste reviews of this one and you have the reviews of the new one.

Refn's gonna Refn.

The new bad movie deserves its own thread.

The reviews I've seen have been more positive than ones for OGF, but I'm not ready to trust him again.

If there is god, he would not forgive Only God Forgives. Utter trash
