I sat with the director, Nicolas Winding Refn, at the Noho Star for four hours and told him why I wasn’t going to do his movie. I think that made him like me. As it was written, I hated the character. In the script, he was a Mexican, tatted-up guy who beat his wife and gave alcohol to his infant son. When you saw this guy, you wanted the blond people—Carey Mulligan, who played my wife, and Ryan Gosling, who played my rival for her affections—to get together. I absolutely did not want to play that role. So Refn said, ‘Make him anything you want him to be.’ And I rewrote my character.

You know when people either love you or hate you, it’s for the same reasons. And that’s when you know you have penetrated the audience and you have touched them and you have sparked something in them that flows through their system. Either they consume and take it with them and love or they hate it and it destroys them and they’re angry at me. And all I can say is, “thank you very much, they’ll be another one.” It’s what art is supposed to do. We live in a society where there’s a perfect scenario of art. There’s like a manual, if you do this, this and this, you’ll achieve that. But that’s the chief enemy of creativity, is being safe and having “good taste”. Art is the expression of emotions and it has to grab you in a poetic, beautiful and gentle way as well as a violent, aggressive and frustrating way.
