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.

In my review of
She Rides Shotgun I briefly commented on the performance of
Taron Egerton who you may know from the 2014 British Spy film
Kingsman: The Secret Service by
Matthew Vaughn. Today I gonna present to you a sort of half assed theory about how
Kingsman happened due to a different Matthew Vaughn picture: 2004
Layer Cake. And alternatively how Tarantino brought to us the
Daniel Craig era of
James Bond.
