Drive director Nicolas Winding Refn in an interview: “Content is our downfall” – Culture

The devil wears Prada, just like Nicolas Windig Refn when you meet him at the Mannheim Film Festival. The Danish filmmaker recently shot a longer art film, “Touch of Crude,” with the diabolically distinctive neon style for the Italian luxury brand; The miniseries “Copenhagen Cowboy” was created for Netflix. During the interview he is mainly concerned with the Turkish food that was served to him. That doesn’t stop him from expounding generously: about the state of cinema, Hollywood, artificial intelligence and the dictatorship of “content”. But first things get serious.
