Cannes 2013: Only God Forgives Review

Only-God-Forgives-Promo-Poster

Nicolas Winding Refn gained something of a cult following after Drive, his previous team up with Ryan Gosling, and the film even gained the Danish filmmaker a number of fans who would most likely usually favour more mainstream fare. His and Gosling’s follow-up, Only God Forgives, has just premiered at Cannes, playing in Competition, but [...]




HeyUGuys Interview – Richard Coyle and Agness Deyn Talk Pusher

Pusher Poster

As you can probably tell from the review, I rather enjoyed Luis Prieto’s remake of Pusher, making several comments about how good the cast were. So when I got the chance to speak to the film’s leads, Richard Coyle and Agness Deyn, I jumped at it. Kicking off with a chat about seeing a massive [...]

For Your Consideration: The Big Films at this Year’s BAFTA Awards

BAFTA Awards Logo

When we look at the names up for Best Film at this year’s BAFTA awards what is evident and of particular interest is the absence of a clear favourite. Last year The King’s Speech picked up an unusual amount of momentum and there was no huge surprise when the envelopes were opened and Messrs Firth [...]

If 2011 Were A Movie…

2011 Logo

In recent years we have seen Hollywood tap a variety of different resources in its ongoing search for new ideas. Stopping just short of sticking its hand down the side of the sofa and rummaging for loose inspiration, Tinseltown has instead chosen to adapt everything from the usual books, video games and television shows, to [...]

Nicolas Winding Refn’s Drive is by far my favourite film of the year. By so far. It very much deservedly won him the Best Director Award when it debuted at this year’s Cannes Film Festival back in May. And, in my opinion, it is quite simply one of the most awesome and coolest movies ever [...]

When Cult Cinema Translates to Big Box Office


memento cult cinema

On its third week of release, Nicholas Winding Refn’s much-praised, pseudo-80’s neon noir Drive has slipped out of the US box office, having made a relatively modest $27m so far. In many ways this is a frustrating figure for a film which has been almost universally praised by critics, but it’s perhaps unsurprising why it [...]

Drive Poster 2

Everything that’s come from Nicolas Winding Refn’s upcoming film, Drive, has been absolutely fantastic, showing how utterly brilliant this film is.
