It's an experience that won't leave you, for better or worse. I can't gauge if it says anything important either. I'm left with a lot of potential inquiries but no cohesive stance.Carson Lundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10164962777812861110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-294916540840535575.post-69543403974165394892010-01-01T06:51:49.041-08:002010-01-01T06:51:49.041-08:00I'd meant to leave this comment forever ago, w...I'd meant to leave this comment forever ago, when Loren Rosson pointed your post out to me, but didn't. So here it is, better late than never.<br /><br />Part of me wants to consider this a magnificent film, but I'm not sure that it quite makes the grade. I always describe Von Trier's films as a sort of abstract poem shaped into a narrative, and this is really no exception.<br /><br />It comes <i>so close</i> to saying something truly profound, but I can't decide if it actually manages to do it or not.<br /><br />It was either one of the best horror movies I've seen in years, or unjustifiably pretentious. I can't decide which, so it's probably both.Rick Sumnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10284073533968750655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-294916540840535575.post-57927809982476171382009-10-29T13:16:55.502-07:002009-10-29T13:16:55.502-07:00I very much agree with your take on it.

As I was saying to Mike this movie could have been a classic if it were given a revision by someone sane. <br /><br />Either way it is a great movie in the sense that it was incredibly original and left quite the impression on me more so than many movies. And it wasn't only because of the shocking scenes.Erik Lundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00717356451712276307noreply@blogger.com
