He is not really swearing. Swearing would mean to use the word to enhance a point or to talk down on something, but in this matter he used it as a synonym for sex, wich it actually is.
well, what the f***. The two phrases he uses to make his point gives us exactly the same connotations. 'Sex' and 'Fuc****' are just two different words for the same thing. ONLY difference is the word itself. So what's the fucking problem?
He was a bit dumb for swearing like that lol.. on the topic at hand.. I learn a lot from this guy. He's totally right about the build up thing. Violence in itself in movies is just a magic trick. We know it's fake and there's no feeling behind it. The violence in Drive actually had an effect on me, because of his talents
What inconsiderate dickheads commenting below saying they are too soft. British people are probably the most down to earth people you will meet.
This was 9 AM in the morning when people are getting ready for school and work. If you think that is acceptable language then you're out of order and should get your head examined, regardless of whether this guy is a great director or not.
I've seen Drive and it is a great film, but still, totally the wrong use of language nontheless.
@JPotential Well said! It's broadcast standard, taken directly from the beeb's editorial guidelines:
'We must not include strong language before the watershed, or on radio when children are particularly likely to be in our audience, or in online content likely to appeal to a significant proportion of children, unless it is justified by the context. Even then, frequent use must be avoided.'
@TheChar1983 Just from seeing interviews with him, he seems to have mild autism or something along the lines. He doesn't have any social niceties and is very eccentric in the way he acts, so maybe that's why
@MultiObligation With your belligerent remark you've made me quite the pedantic. For the time is 9:10am if you were unaware, by which time all people with average jobs and children would be in school. Without nit-picking I'd say your remark was sparked by patriotic zest... which is quite unbecoming to me seeing as the argument appears, once scrutinized, to be nothing more than a simple retort sparked by rash indignation. So for our mutual well-being your remark will be ignored.
Look at that expression Mulligan has when she hears what Refn said. Priceless. And watch the guy's face between 0:13-0:17. It's like "Ooops, what did I say? Sorry."
British people are so fucking soft..I have trouble working with these soft middle class wankers myself...it's like they grew up with no hardship in their lives
@viralfunnies - You have obviously been working with the previlaged middle class a lot of us have had a hard backgroud just trying to survive day to day we are not all over educated twats.
@kew4612 that's what I mean..I grew up in a rough estate on Glasgow, now I work in London, and there is definitely a cultural difference between someone like me and the english middle class..they are too soft, emotionally distant, repressed and offended way way too easily...it basically tells me they grew up with a silver spoon in their ass, and I can't stand it
haha, i would've loved to have seen this live ! ... and on the discussion of 'fuck the bbc' - it wouldn't matter if it was the bbc or any other broadcaster, there's a watershed for a reason.
@metamorphiclouds ... it's breakfast television. i'd love to know what mainstream channels allow swearing from 6am?! having an opinion and saying fuck are two completely different things... i can only assume that you have linked not being able to swear before 9pm on national TV to not being able to have a 'mature opinion' which is ridiculous since the director is still able to express himself perfectly well by replacing 'fucking' with 'sex'. not even going to start on the dark ages thing...
@patrickplsxo Lot of places do, especially many countries in Europe, where they even show nudity and sex in morning programs. Oh my lord, they used "fuck" - what are we going to do? "Fucking" is also not the same word as sex, and the former has a far more powerful connotation. Also, how is saying "fuck" wrong and allowing racist spiel on air (David Starkey) correct? The recent London riots are ample evidence of Britain's lost priorities.
@metamorphiclouds there has to be a line or a 'standard' in programming just as there are certifications on films to protect people. it's unfair to presume that what you think is acceptable language is what everyone else wants to hear. i agree that sometimes things like are restraining but thats when programming after 9 comes in; there are always going to be fuck ups (starkey)... the london riots were a TINY percentage of youth population that quite clearly don't represent the entire nation.
@patrickplsxo The fact is, you're completely ignoring Britain's social problems (e.g. the divide between the rich and the poor) by simply associating it to a "tiny" percentage (if they were really so "tiny", look at the damage that was inflicted, not tiny in the slightest, was it?). By prioritizing a completely minor issue like language (oh goodness gracious me, the world will break apart if that word is used), you're ignoring the real issues at hand. That is why the riots happened as they did.
@metamorphiclouds Also, in Refn's case, he is a director and a creative artist. Since he *chose* to use the word "fucking", rather than "sex" (which as I said does not have the same connotation), that's his creative choice, because he felt that word does a better job at describing what he was going for. By stifling his usage of the word, you're stifling artistic freedom.
@metamorphiclouds you are mis-informed on so many levels. britain has its problems like ALL countries. no matter where you are, there are social inequalities and injustics in the governing systems. the riots were an overflow of weak minded teens who were more interested in stealing tracksuits and tv's than 'fighting' for reason (which was illogical anyway). language is power, the sickness and cure to all problems. riots have literally fuck all to do with the bbc swearing policy...
@patrickplsxo Again, if you think that was the main reason for the riots, you're either in self-denial (a plausible theory) or again, clearly ignoring the major social problems that have merged due to rampant unemployment and social discord. Tell me, where did the riots first start? Yes, at an "estate". How did these emerge? Again, THESE are important issues that if are not addressed, will emerge again. Language is irrelevant. Did it cure the effects of colonialism and disease in India & Africa?
@metamorphiclouds in two weeks time my parents are told if they have lost their jobs to david cameron's 'big society' - there is no bubble. i am experiencing the social ills of this country like everyone else so please don't assume that i take the bbc's word as gospel. the entire corporation has a reputation that they want to hold on to - a reliable source of wholesome goodness i'm sure but this isn't because the nation asked for it. regarding starkey, the bbc didn't apologise but this seems to
@metamorphiclouds assuming that you aren't from england (the riots weren't across great britain), i wouldn't expect you to understand the realities of the people who were a part of the riots. one crime exploded into a frenzy of teens with nothing better to do than trash their own towns. as an english teenager myself i found it disgusting to watch and am offended that people around the world believe this was a majority movement that caused a negative opinion that you obviously agree with.
@patrickplsxo Again, majorities and minorities are not the case here, and you've completely failed to get the point of my post if you think that's the case. Even if a supposed minority caused such carnage, and yes, all across England, the EFFECTS were not minor, were they? You may enjoy living in a bubble, but the people who're experiencing the brunt of this don't.
@patrickplsxo Also, on the Starkey incident, I find it interesting that the BBC and its presenters did not react with the same disdain to Starkey's racist comments (in fact, I'm not even sure they apologized? they didn't, did they?) like they've done here. An outrageous pilfering of priorities. I've lived in several countries including the UK so I know full well of the dinosaur-like status of the BBC, remnants of a broken, failed system.
@patrickplsxo And if you prefer restricting it to a regional discussion that only "people from England" (i wonder who defines this?) can comment on - lots of English commentators and media personages, including Ken Loach etc. (google his interviews with the Guardian on the matter) have pointed out the major issues from the riot i.e. the rampant social problems at the heart of the issue.
@metamorphiclouds stem from meer 70 people that complained. however, i agree with you that there should be something made of it. in this situation (live breakfast tv), the presenters are surely briefed to react/deal swiftly with anything that they don't want so maybe that's why it seems so ridiculous? safe to say i feel like i've lost the argument, you seem like a clever guy but generalisations are a bad thing... cheers for the food for thought.
@patrickplsxo I'm sorry to hear about your parents losing their jobs, and apologise for the hasty generalisation - that wasn't my intent. You do make a valid point that it was a live TV recording, and the presenters probably aren't at fault; they'd have a lot of angry mothers on their case who'd watched in horror as he said those words, I'd imagine. It's just that Refn is probably used to it back home, and it was a classic cultural misunderstanding (a la Todd Margaret).
Oh my fellow Americans how fucking ignorant we can be... We have far stricter TV language censoring here then they do in the UK. Absolutely loved "Drive" by the way "beautifully brutal" sums it up pretty well in my opinion. Counting the days until the DVD drops.
What the hell? It's like being in school and the teacher asks you to redo a sentence! I can't believe their reaction, how childish and awkward! What's going on in the UK? Hipocrites.
It's in the morning and they don't want kids hearing it, that's why they don't allow swearing. Nothing about being prudish, just about being polite. So fuck off all you cunts who are launching attacks against the British because of it.
@martang66 No, but from all the other students. Nikolas Refn is not a role model, he is not there to please anybody, he is there representing himself as an artist.
@martang66 By the way, love the way you talk about being polite and watch your language and then you finish your comment with: "So fuck off all you cunts who are launching attacks against the British because of it." HAHA! "Fuck off"? "Cunts?" Are you aware that there are children in Youtube also? Double standard! You should start practising what you preach, then I would might be able to respect your point of view. Hope you're not going to participate in the show, they will ban you!
@Kemikaza84 I was making a point, dear. Also, do you know I'm not a child? You've managed to entirely miss my point...it is ADULTS who should be role models for children, as a general rule - I'm not suggesting Mr Refn is going to replace Barney any time soon!
@poonus2 I know, but the BBC network has always been picky about this kind of thing. Really oldies hate it. It's not exactly hard to not swear anyway.
Hahaha! Typical Brits and Americans! Calm down guys, it's just a word used in a totally decent and harmless context! Why did they put focus on that word if it was sooo bad? They could just have ignored it and let the guy finish the sentence and get his message through. But no, because they felt too uncomfortable and when he continued talking and using the word SEX, you could tell that the male host felt really uncomfortable and just wanted it to end, saying: mhmm mhm, like enough enough! Akward!
What a fucked up world where freedom of speech is non-existent and everything is censured away.The hosts were ackward and offensive in their reactions to this! Why couldn't they just let it go!? He is an artist, in his homecountry he can swear on TV and no one notice it. It was not an accident, he just wanted to make that expression to comunicate his message. Stop interviewing and asking artists questions if they are not allowed to give an honoust answer just because people are so sensitive!
Look, the guy slipped up. He's a young, hip artist not used to sitting around and having pleasant chats on family talk shows. His natural instinct was to speak his mind. Granted, the word is offensive, but it was not his intention to hurt anyone.
And to the prudes out there overreacting, why are you so wound up over the use of this one offensive word when your precious children are exposed to images of horrific violence not only on the news but on the other 500 channels, TV, and video games?
I think only British people are going to understand why this is a big deal (well maybe not only), this is shown on the biggest channel in the UK, everyone watches BBC 1. And this is directly after Children's programs. The UK isn't full of prudes or anything, far from. After 9pm UK TV can show whatever the fuck it wants :) That's just the rules for TV here. Not exactly hard to follow.
I'm British and I couldn't care less that he swore. The amount of swearing we are all exposed to anyway is far worse than a minor mishap on BBC Breakfast.
This programme plays during the morning. Obviously it is a big deal because in the UK there are specific laws that restrict any swearing etc before 9pm. But then again he didn't realise so it is kind of ok. Just a downfall of doing a show live.
haha I don't think they have much censorship in central European countries. When I went to Amsterdam they had hardcore porn on normal TV in the afternoon.
@officialvangcreative you are obviously one of the lower intelligent individuals that I have told my children use the word as they cannot express themselves without it. You clearly didn't read and/or understand what I wrote. of course I am bringing my children up to live in the real world-the way i was brought up-to have respect for others and myself without feeling the need to use foul language. Your 'well off' comment underlines this-is that really what is important?
The word fuck is used by every single person on the surface of the planet, but you can't say it on television in the UK and in the US... two countries who claim to be the most developed in the world.
Really, we're closing in on 2012. It's not the fucking middle ages. People are starving to death, being tortured, children are dying of aids - and the victorian UK and US is worried about the F word not being broadcast in the media? Er... priorities, people!!!!!!
Well I am all up for freedom of speech, I say fuck all the time, but still I have to question Nicolas' sense or lack of. He really didn't know not to say that on an BBC breakfast show? Did he forgot what time of day it was or something? or did he fail to realize that breakfast shows are live at breakfast?
@Adammarketis Perfectly put mate.. I'm sure there was a touch of arrogance to his appearance, as it came across like he didn't really care for his surroundings... I have to say, I love the odd F Bomb... But to say, like most people are saying here that "Oh, its just a word" is just stupid...
omg lol. Not allowed to say that? people need to chill

@martang66 No, but from all the other students. Nikolas Refn is not a role model, he is not there to please anybody, he is there representing himself as an artist.

@martang66 By the way, love the way you talk about being polite and watch your language and then you finish your comment with: "So fuck off all you cunts who are launching attacks against the British because of it." HAHA! "Fuck off"? "Cunts?" Are you aware that there are children in Youtube also? Double standard! You should start practising what you preach, then I would might be able to respect your point of view. Hope you're not going to participate in the show, they will ban you!

@Kemikaza84 I was making a point, dear. Also, do you know I'm not a child? You've managed to entirely miss my point...it is ADULTS who should be role models for children, as a general rule - I'm not suggesting Mr Refn is going to replace Barney any time soon!

@poonus2 I know, but the BBC network has always been picky about this kind of thing. Really oldies hate it. It's not exactly hard to not swear anyway.

Hahaha! Typical Brits and Americans! Calm down guys, it's just a word used in a totally decent and harmless context! Why did they put focus on that word if it was sooo bad? They could just have ignored it and let the guy finish the sentence and get his message through. But no, because they felt too uncomfortable and when he continued talking and using the word SEX, you could tell that the male host felt really uncomfortable and just wanted it to end, saying: mhmm mhm, like enough enough! Akward!

What a fucked up world where freedom of speech is non-existent and everything is censured away.The hosts were ackward and offensive in their reactions to this! Why couldn't they just let it go!? He is an artist, in his homecountry he can swear on TV and no one notice it. It was not an accident, he just wanted to make that expression to comunicate his message. Stop interviewing and asking artists questions if they are not allowed to give an honoust answer just because people are so sensitive!

Look, the guy slipped up. He's a young, hip artist not used to sitting around and having pleasant chats on family talk shows. His natural instinct was to speak his mind. Granted, the word is offensive, but it was not his intention to hurt anyone.
And to the prudes out there overreacting, why are you so wound up over the use of this one offensive word when your precious children are exposed to images of horrific violence not only on the news but on the other 500 channels, TV, and video games?

I think only British people are going to understand why this is a big deal (well maybe not only), this is shown on the biggest channel in the UK, everyone watches BBC 1. And this is directly after Children's programs. The UK isn't full of prudes or anything, far from. After 9pm UK TV can show whatever the fuck it wants :) That's just the rules for TV here. Not exactly hard to follow.

This programme plays during the morning. Obviously it is a big deal because in the UK there are specific laws that restrict any swearing etc before 9pm. But then again he didn't realise so it is kind of ok. Just a downfall of doing a show live.

@officialvangcreative you are obviously one of the lower intelligent individuals that I have told my children use the word as they cannot express themselves without it. You clearly didn't read and/or understand what I wrote. of course I am bringing my children up to live in the real world-the way i was brought up-to have respect for others and myself without feeling the need to use foul language. Your 'well off' comment underlines this-is that really what is important?

The word fuck is used by every single person on the surface of the planet, but you can't say it on television in the UK and in the US... two countries who claim to be the most developed in the world.
Really, we're closing in on 2012. It's not the fucking middle ages. People are starving to death, being tortured, children are dying of aids - and the victorian UK and US is worried about the F word not being broadcast in the media? Er... priorities, people!!!!!!

Well I am all up for freedom of speech, I say fuck all the time, but still I have to question Nicolas' sense or lack of. He really didn't know not to say that on an BBC breakfast show? Did he forgot what time of day it was or something? or did he fail to realize that breakfast shows are live at breakfast?
