Everything we do is about the emotion of the characters. We believe the better the emotion, the better the movie.
Nicolas Winding RefnI have not seen "Batman v Superman," unfortunately. It hasn't been on the plane, as I've been flying a lot.
Nicolas Winding RefnCreativity is narcissism. Creativity is falling in love with one's self as you create. It's self-indulgent.
Nicolas Winding RefnAll my other movies have the same process. Same approach. Same amount of changes. Everything. Things being made up on the fly. Changing things around. Firing and recasting. Constantly, constantly, in chronological sequence, not really knowing how this is going to end up. That is the only dogmatic approach I take towards everything.
Nicolas Winding RefnI think everybody's looking for religion to believe in. I think we all need faith.
Nicolas Winding RefnFilmmaking is like any kind of art form. You have to try to figure it out, and you're going to do that by trying. It's like teaching a child to walk. It may start by walking, but eventually it will fall. And I have kids, but I know that that will enable them to stand up again and understand why they fell, and how they can avoid that. They will walk better and faster, and stronger. Filmmaking is the same.
