An opinionated, revealing collection of interviews with the
mercurial Danish director of Dogville, Dancer in the Dark, and
Breaking the Waves.
The only director to have accomplished the unique feat of
premiering all of his features at Cannes, Lars von Trier is the
unabashed prince of the European avant-garde. The grand ambitions
of his career mirror those of an earlier generation of directors,
such as von Sternberg and von Stroheim, a similarity the director
openly acknowledges, having affected the lordly 'von' in his name
as a tribute while still in film school. From his highly stylized
debut, "Element of Crime," to the universally acclaimed "Breaking
the Waves" and controversial musical "Dancer in the Dark," von
Trier has constantly challenged the boundaries of contemporary
film, and this thoughtful and engagingly humorous assortment of
interviews with fellow director Stig Bjorkman reveals the
motivation behind his most lasting and controversial
innovations-most notably the back-to-basics Dogme 95 movement, as
well as the propless, setless" Dogville," which debuted at Cannes
in 2003 to lavish praise. Accompanied by several 'manifestos' which
explicate his most experimental films, "Trier on von Trier"
promises a definitive portrait of "the most brilliant director
working in cinema today." ("IndieWIRE")
