"Dancer in the Dark" released in 2000 won the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival. This is the first time that the film academia has given Dogme95-style films the highest honor. The famous French film critic Ralph Rischer said: ""Dancer in the Dark" is an ingenious and aesthetically sensual song and dance film. It is a bit romantic and a bit gray, but full of power. It is a classic for more than 100 years. All the depths of love in the movie go, there is not only the color of glass, but also the penetrating power of the abyss." The 53rd Cannes Film Festival judges commented: The singer Bjork, who has the reputation of "Icelandic Goddess", performed in the film. It is amazing that although she has never appeared in a movie before, we are still impressed by her acting skills. Her music has always been light and headstrong, like a modernist artistic ice sculpture. At first hearing it was a bit random, and after listening to it, she found that the charm is infinite and natural. With her unparalleled "ghost voice", she can't help but stand out from the crowd.

    What you love, music, and regrets that extend out of your body. Useless efforts will bury your life.

    The dimly out-of-focus and jittery handheld photography presents a cruel and shocking sense of reality, which is in sharp contrast with the interspersed dazzling and brilliant dream songs and dances. Bjork's excellent acting skills, choreography and heart-to-heart singing are all five-star standards. The title of an abstract painting has a special flavor. Although the film’s desperate and sadistic heart is like a delay and a heavy depression like a boulder, it is full of positive energy from another angle-I hope I can also smile at adversity and have love in my heart. (9.5/10)
