Reflection on life_The meaning of love

One of the conscience trilogy directed by Lars von Trier, the
other two "Dog Town" and "Dancer in the Darkness" were also watched last year , and
I liked them very much!
Compared to the previous two films, the tone of this movie is obviously much lower.
It is also a big environment to render the whole plot.
From weddings to funerals! In one breath, we were tightly controlled by Lars von Trier
in this transition from joy to mania to sorrow . Looking back, each of the trilogy was unique. A fusion of the stage play of Dogtown. "Dancer in the Dark" is a fusion of musical theatre. It can be seen that the director's innovative intentions bring us a special feeling. Let's talk about love in movies. The director perfectly demonstrated the whole process of the birth of a living tragedy through the lens in his hand. The movie is very cinematic. It looked very real! Although this kind of love is a tragedy, perhaps such a tragedy will make more people think about the meaning of love and the value of life compared to those sweet and happy loves!
