Style over substance is what you will get with Neon Demon. It's Black Swan meets Bladerunner. Nicolas Winding Refn, now "NWR," cultivates (savors?) his art deco sense of cinematography in his latest. Neon Demon follows the story of an anorexic ingenue with the "it" factor, set in the glitzy world of glamor. It's a classic innocence lost tale. The dialogue is mysteriously terse a la David Lynch. The plot bares a suspicious resemblance to a certain ballerina picture. It stars nobody.
I will say this for Neon Demon. It's visually stunning. You may find this interesting if you're a model, but if you find it relatable or realistic, seek help.
