You probably shouldn’t watch this if you don’t like blood and guts and gore but you totally should watch this if you want to see how some amazing effects come together. Remember, it’s all fake. That’s actually the point of this video.
Nicholas Winding Refn has made a lot of movies with stood, nearly silent protagonists. His last film, _drive_, I loved. _Valhalla Rising_ manages to convey a much or more about it’s mute protagonist without any dialogue from him as his previous work _Bronson_ does with the protagonist addressing the camera directly. So how does this one fare?
Apparently it’s Poster Day here at Awesome Friday.
One of the films we’re maybe most looking forward to this summer is Only God Forgives which sees Ryan Gosling reunite with Nicholas Winding Refn for a story of vengeance in Thailand. Here are posters for each of the three main characters, [thanks to TwitchFilm](http://twitchfilm.com/2013/06/check-a-trio-of-character-posters-for-refns-only-god-forgives-gallery.html)
There are two new trailers for Nicolas Winding Refn’s upcoming Only God Forgives. Both of them are international, both of them are NSFW due to language and violence and nakedness, both of them tell us a little more plot and both of them make Kristin Scott Thomas looks _fucking scary_.
If you’ve ever paid attention to us you know that [Drive](https://awesomefriday.ca/tag/drive/) was our favourite film of 2011. Director Nicholas Winding Refn and star Ryan Gosling have re-teamed for Only God Forgives, a movie set in Thailand about a fight.
Holy moly does this look like it might be amazing. Refn is great at creating a certain mood in his films and Gosling is a hell of an actor, throw in a little Kristen Scott Thomas and this looks like it might be one of the years best.
For some reason this isn’t on my [most anticipated list](https://awesomefriday.ca/2013/01/matts-most-anticipated-of-2013/) even though I totally knew it was coming out this year. WTF is wrong with me? Consider it added to the list.
