Everything we do is about the emotion of the characters. We believe the better the emotion, the better the movie.

There's incredible effect in being either loved or hated, but knowing that, either way, you have penetrated the mind and have altered it; that is a very pleasurable feeling.

I love watching the superhero movies and I would love to make one.

Look at the birth of anything; it's always more violent than anything you could ever imagine.

I consider it a great honour that my movie Drive inspired so many wonderful artists to come together and create one ultra-cool glam experience.

The thing with Ryan, you can look at him for hours. Very few actors have that. It's a gift.

In "Drive," there's a heightened male edge. In "Only God Forgives," it was almost crawling back into the womb of the mother. And now with "The Neon Demon," being reborn as a 16-year-old girl.
