yeah so uhh... how many more times do we have to see 'a glimpse into lars von triers mind' before we just get him a therapist and move on
-
-
in case you haven’t noticed, i’m weird. i’m a weirdo. i don’t fit in. and i don’t want to fit in. have you ever seen me without this stupid red van? that’s weird
-
-
the part where jack and virgil are going through the cave is a metaphor for how far lars von trier is up his own ass
-
another trip through the abattoir of Lars von Trier’s anxieties, this one a damning self-critique of / backhanded apology for the compulsive violence of artistic creation. the ending is a scorcher.
certainly won't win over any new converts, but it's essential catnip for von Trier fans (and forms a fascinating rhyme with NYMPHOMANIAC in many ways, some quite literal).
very sorry to say that I loved this.

Lars Von Trier: Hey man, doesn’t life suuuuck? And doesn’t the life of an artist suuuuck? Aren’t serial killers the same as serious artists? Aren’t their victims, in a sense, a work of art? Hey, aren’t I a serious artist? Isn’t my entire filmography full of violent and disgusting things? Doesn’t Matt Dillon in this movie I directed remind you of me? Doesn’t his appalling crimes in this movie remind you of my movies and how they’re received by audiences? Here, let me insert a superclip of my own movies as I provide pseudo-intellectual bullshit about me and my own works.
Me: Alexa, play Get The Fuck Out by Mariah Carey.

Saw the director's cut last night at the Rio Theatre in Vancouver.
Another masterful entry in the unparalleled canon of one of our greatest filmmakers. I highly recommend taking advantage of the one night only screenings on 11/28 in the States.
Performances are great across the board.
Funniest Von Trier moments since The Idiots.
AMAZING monologues.
Manuel Alberto Claro's digital cinematography is beautiful.
