Oh Lars! Such a bad boy!

As Von Trier exits Cannes ... is it the end of the world on planet Lars? | Film | guardian.co.uk

I had myself a hearty lol when he said what he did about Israel, and seeing Miss. Dunst squirming was just.. Great..

Snip of the article:

Quote:
Prior to this year's Cannes film festival, critics were wondering just how the Danish director Lars von Trier could possibly top his previous appearance, back in 2009, when he rolled into town with his outrageous gynophobic horror movie Antichrist, projected a bloody clitoridectomy 10-feet high on the screens of the Palais and found himself booed and whistled for his trouble. The last 24 hours have provided the answer. Speaking at a press conference following the preview of his latest film, Melancholia, von Trier expressed sympathy for Hitler, remarked that Israel was "a pain in the arse" and jokingly confessed to being a Nazi. He has now been banned by the festival organisers.

One can only guess what was running through the director's mind as he stepped up to the dais to discuss his film yesterday. Perhaps he felt tetchy and uncertain about the film he had just unveiled (Melancholia, he mused, "may be crap"). Perhaps he came with the intention of whipping up a controversy that his movie (a gorgeous, though maundering meditation on the end of the world) has singularly failed to provide. More likely he just wanted to wind us up. Von Trier, after all, has shown a peculiar genius for winding up his audience for the best part of 20 years. On this occasion he wound too far and the joke exploded.

Let's keep this in perspective. I doubt if there is anyone at this festival who genuinely believes that von Trier is a Nazi and that it took a simple press conference to to flush out his awful, long-buried secret. The issue is whether Hitler and the Holocaust is a fit subject for a casual, comedic riff – particularly when it then segues into a (presumably heartfelt) criticism of the state of Israel. Von Trier, in other words, is innocent of the charge of nazism. On the related charge of dubious, bad-taste buffoonery, however, he is as guilty as sin.

I guess his antics are pretty lulzy. I only wish he'd make a watchable film.

Ha! I know right?

It's been a very good long time since I've watched it last. It's feels quite long.

Ude på landet, der er efteråret rigtig lummert. DET KRAFTEDEME LUMMERT!

Oh cap I love that you are half viking now.

Lars is a fucking god.

The Boss of It All- I saw it in the cinema- I had no idea what was going on for the first half of the film- the second half I nearly died laughing.

Breaking the Waves is an amazing film, I can't believe I forgot to mention it in the foreign film thread.

The Idiots- lol!

i have always been partially viking (dansk etternavn), but learning norwegian definitely improved my understanding of the scandanavians

i should probably watch the movie again for good measure

Dude I really enjoyed his narrative. It's just so dry and sterilised. All of those actors in the boss of it all are stable danish actors. I don't know, it adds to the comedy in some way.
