Lars von Thiel's house was made by me

Although I gave this film 5 points, I have to say that I have basically seen several of Lars von Trier's films. The director himself is an antichrist. This is for sure. I personally tend to be this pervert. The killer is in Romance Lars von Trier's own mentality, that is, a killer's mentality is also a constantly updated artistic growth path. We don't understand the killer's heart, we need to experiment one by one to present a different sense of art, so Everything in his eyes is not abnormal, only the artistic sense after destruction and repositioning. Like every work of the director, many of his works are anti-Christ, but he does not feel that he will lead to society and the crowd. The uneasy or uncomfortable, as the killer said, he just found the dark spots of the sun in the film, he wants to show it, and the decoration of the corpse is the same, he wants to show the new artistic atmosphere after the dilapidation. Killing is just a necessary process for him, and the killer will not feel fear because of killing, just like the director has no sense of shame when he makes a film.

The old man who was finally talking to the killer was the messenger of hell or the old director. The old man kept asking questions, and the killer answered. They discussed. They did not have any compassion for all the dead in the past, but only discussed the purpose of the killer and the heart of the killer. Hopeful artistic house. This is actually a conversation between the old director and himself, who is constantly making films to find a new sense of art. The old man suggested that the killer build the corpses into houses. In fact, these corpses are all the films of the director himself. Christians will go to hell, so the house is built, and the old man leads his middle-aged self [the killer] to hell.

The peasants outside the hell are harvesting, the old man says we can never be there again, the killer sheds tears for the first time in the whole film. He does not belong to them. When the killer first watched the farmers harvest when he was a child, he chose to pick up the duck and cut the legs of the duckling. The harvest here is described in the Bible. God has harvested the world. The peasants are only angels, not devils.] At that moment, he was very eager for this kind of God's choice, but it was impossible.

The exit on the other side of hell is actually redemption. The killer or the director also hopes that he can achieve redemption at the last moment with his own efforts. The old director shook his head and sighed. He knew that he would fail, and the killer had better fall to the bottom of hell.

The name of the movie is that this room was made by me, made of corpses, and Lars von Trier is also telling us that this room was made by me, such a movie full of killings that cannot be redeemed was also made by the director, and the director is also there. Build the director's own house. I personally think it's a self-explaining, self-interpreting film, and Lars von Trier is doing it to tell you that no matter how you understand me, I don't feel like I've done anything wrong in this long past, I just It's just different art, I know I'm going to hell because of this, and I can't save myself, but all my so-called antichrist movies are already the crystallization of an art, and that's this house, and this house is I made it, nothing to regret.

One additional point: Lars von Trier inserts his own past films into the film, not to pay tribute to himself, but to tell you that these films are those corpses, and the killers pile up the corpses into an artistic house, and the director uses these to be seen by others Uncomfortable shots piled up their own films.

In the movie, the killer said a word, Russ. Feng. What Till said through Jack: "Why are all men's fault? Women are all victims, and men are criminals", which is aimed at the Bible, Adam ate the apple given by Eve, but God asked Adam why he ate the fruit, Instead of asking Eve, and then Adam put the blame on Eve and God, but God said that human beings have sinned because of Adam, so they have it again, the movie said these four sentences through the mouth of the killer.
