‘Only God Forgives’ Red Band Trailer: Ryan Gosling Drags a Dude Down a Hall By the Teeth

The worst thing about the Only God Forgives trailer is the “Coming Soon” tag at the end. This thing needs a US release date quick or Nicolas Winding Refn and Ryan Gosling’s fans are going to riot in the street. I’ll be at the front of the pack participating in some anarchy with whatever I can grab.

In the movie, Gosling plays a gangster feuding with a man of the law (Vithaya Pansringarm) in the mean streets of Bangkok. To settle the score, the two men agree to take the fight into the ring.

The trailer itself is aggressively sensual. Entire scenes bathed in red. A dreamy music-box-based song to go along with all the violence being shown. It also looks like it might have the best Kristin Scott Thomas performance since Tell No One. Check it out for yourself:
