The Neon Demon 2016 begs for a psycho-sexual analysis

Nicolas Winding Refn seems to be making only cult-classics. His 2011 Drive was a moderate box office success. But a banger of a cult-classic later on, as people understood that it is not a mere action film. Then he made Only God Forgives. A strange psycho-sexual movie where the plot lives in the crack-space between reality and dream-land. The film got misunderstood and barely made its money back. Yet those people who like it, like it very much. And then he made a straight box-office disaster The Neon Demon that made only half of its ( rather small $7.5 million ) budget back. Yet it is seems like it's the kind of movie that just begs for a deep analysis.

Finally got around to rewatching the amazing Pusher trilogy after way too long – and man, I just had to do a quick Nicolas Winding Refn appreciation post. So yeah, here it is: a Nicolas Winding Refn appreciation post.

Along with Lars von Trier, he’s one of Denmark’s finest gifts to us movie nerds.

I'm thinking that films about pretty people being pretty like #TheSubstance or #TheNeonDemon are subjective to the perspective of the people making them. Because everybody finds something else pretty.
