Alejandro Jodorowsky's 'spiritual filmmaking godson'
Just read an interview where Nicolas Winding Refn is stated to be Alejandro Jodorowsky's "spiritual filmmaking godson". It's from an interview with Frank Pavich who directed fresh documentary "Jodorowsky's Dune", and Nicolas Winding Refn is presented himself in this docu too.
"Jodorowsky's called him [Nicolas Winding Refn] the greatest filmmaker alive, and they know each other very well".
Does anyone know about Jodorowsky-Refn connection?
