'My Life Directed by Nicolas Winding Refn' unfortunately confirms my biggest issue with 'Only God Forgives' and that's Refn had no idea what he was doing while making the movie. Even then, I still sympathy with his struggle as a film marker to communicate his vision and ideas to the screen.
The documentary is a little short, 58 mins, and it's simple to follow where nothing too crazy or chaotic happens. So it's no movie making documentary like 'Hearts of Darkness' or 'Lost Soul: The Doomed Journey of Richard Stanley's Island of Dr. Moreau'.
Sorry Nicolas, but 'Drive' is better.
