After being a definite fan of Nicolas Winding Refn's Drive and enjoying his films Bronson and the Pusher trilogy, I am ecstatic about seeing his newest film Only God Forgives. Another collaboration with Ryan Gosling, where he runs a Thai boxing club as a front for his criminal business, as well as being an ex-kickboxer. Kristin Scott Thomas plays his mother who is one of higher ups in the Bangkok criminal underworld. The trailer is fascinating with hypnotic, gorgeous cinematography, a mellow, ironic song and suggests a film that will contain much violence and fighting. Excited to see how this one turns out and hopefully it will play at next months Cannes Film Festival so we can hear some early word on the film.
