    I have seen this film a long time ago. I always thought that Von Trier was an amazing director. His films made me horrified, because all the extremely ugly human nature in his films appeared with kindness and kindness. And the most terrifying thing is that this kind of face has never been torn apart. Let me ask, could it be that all despicableness has never been noticed by others, is this the case with all of us? I have never seen a director do such an extreme job...

    Everything happened after killing Bill... I don't understand the necessity of a large song and dance scene, simplifying (or even completely deleting) the abrupt song and dance part has almost no impact on the film, and a few scenes are quite heavy and contradictory singing and dancing On the contrary, the drama dilutes the emotions that have been brewing from beginning to end. Although there can be various explanations to pull it out of the main plot, this approach is still puzzling. Of course,...

    Too many people think it's good, but I think there are only two words: contrived. The film is full of sensational atmosphere, as if you are not reconciled if you don't cry, the more I feel uncomfortable and moved, In my eyes, this so-called great mother is nothing but a weak woman who cannot be submissive in...

    75/100 1 One of the conscience trilogy, I only know about Lars von Trier only in "Dog Town". I like it very much. I can only say it's okay. 2 The camera shakes my head, especially this one. The good thing about this forced face-pulling shot is that it really allows you to focus all your attention on the heroine, but the bad thing actually widens my distance from the movie. Foolishness, halo, saint, these words are my impressions. I can't see the director's position and don't think it's an...

    To recognize this film, we must understand how profound and heavy Von Trier's understanding of "evil" is, in order to understand why he created this kind and almost deformed character, just like Pierre, "War and Peace" in "War and Peace". Duke Myshkin in Idiot", they are all kind and even a bit devious images, but the writer actually thinks about the marginal issue of "the ultimate good" in ethics through them, so although this film is not lacking in deliberate and provocative However, in...

    Deliberately selling miserably, every second felt awkward, and I became more and more convinced that if the old tower tested the upper limit of the movie, Von Trier sometimes tested the lower limit of the movie. This may be overturned in the future. We can't deny the height and depth of some of von Trier's works, but we also have to admit that there are some grotesque and deformed works, just like this film has existed for nearly a fifth of a century, and many people still can't like it...
