Let's make this birthday one to remember.

54 years old (Born on September 29, 1970)

Happy Birthday, Nicolas Winding Refn! May your special day be as stylishly intense and visually captivating as your films. From the gritty streets of "Pusher" to the neon-lit brilliance of "Drive," you've consistently steered cinema into thrilling new territory—earning you a well-deserved Best Director award at Cannes in 2011.

Here's hoping your birthday celebration is filled with fewer car chases but just as much excitement. Keep pushing boundaries, crafting unforgettable characters, and reminding us all that silence can speak louder than words—especially when Ryan Gosling is behind the wheel. Cheers to another year of cinematic mastery!
