He definitely cares. He was upset by the reaction to his infamous Cannes comments. He's wanted badly to win the Palme d'Or. He was hurt by what Bjork said about him. But he continues to provoke, that's what's great about him.
Am I the only one who burst out laughing at the ending when Percy Mayfield's "Hit the Road Jack" immediatly started playing? Such an absurd film. Imagine being the CGI artist who had to animate little kids getting shot? SMH...
Brilliant film not a Masterpiece it has flaws but it’s an interesting film that probably will be a cult classic in the near future... Also I think Matt Dillon should get Nominated for an Oscar this is by far his best performance of his entire career so far.
Mikel G - I mean, whether you like him he’s been acting for 40 years and always gives reliable performances. Some are true standouts. Not many have that kind of longevity and respectability.
Mikel G If you think he has no career then you haven’t seen Crash for which he was nominated for an Oscar for and was his best performance until this one... He was also good in the Outsiders ( A true classic gem ) , also he was pretty good in Rumble Fish , there’s something about Mary and Singles.
Although Von Trier isn't my favourite director, his latest movie amazed me quite a lot. Especially, Matt's performance, seeing him acts like that is like seeing Jim Carrey playing a serial killer. In fact, they both look alike. So thank you Lars for casting Matt & Uma for this movie.
Watch (or don't) A Serbian Film. Superb production quality but man, you will never ever EVER forget that ending. Or the film in general. Definitely didn't need to be made. I could have went my life without seeing it but now my eyes can never unsee it.
I liked it. It was dark as promised. A great narrative through the eyes of a serial killer. The ending was a little much for the sake of being artsy and edgy and artistically smart. Not a fan of the ending. It was a little all over the place but it was propobly the best serial killer movie I've seen. Really went into it. Anyone have any other serial killer movies that are better?
I quite loved the ending. Whether Lars' intention was that it should be taken as literally (objectively) having happened, I don't think so, but the Dante & Virgil stuff was dreamlike and very original. Best serial killer movie, I might think so. Best serial killer movie ending, very certainly. (Imo but I get your point) -- as for other serial killer movies, I can't immediately think of one quite as unique and almost romantic as this. 'Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer' (I think it's called) is an old serial killer movie that gets a lot of credit. But it's not as artistic as Jack.
christine deegan I saw the unrated director’s cut and I loved it! It’s difficult to watch but there’s a lot of dark humour in there that helps balance it out.
@Vincent H. It's similar in some regards, but the humour was a nice change of pace. It's my favourite of all his movies. I love Matt Dillon so maybe that added to the appeal for me.

I dont really think that he sympathises with nazis, i think that his view came out wrong on that interview, it seems that he’s not very articulated. On another side, I don’t think he’s a misogynist, some of his films have very powerful and leading female roles...
@@theoutabodies5653 Point 1. Have you heard what he said about his remarks? Point 2. Have you heard his explanation of the Bjork situation? Point 3. There have been so many deaths, and brutally violent ones, in masterpiece tier films, including ones involving women and children. Graphically, one film is different from the other, but conceptually? Violence is still violence.
he's definitely a heavy alcoholic, watch his other interview with Through the Black Forest, he's shaking all over the shop. He also look's very ill, I hope it's not to serious and he get's to make another film.
he mentioned somewhere (besides..) alcohol issues; but this tremor now, looks heavy duty.. well.. crippling or not crippling, prolonged depression.. at the end, devours you completely..

"That dead-eyed anhedonia is but a remora on the ventral flank of the true predator, the Great White Shark of pain. Authorities term this condition clinical depression or involutional depression or unipolar dysphoria. Instead of just an incapacity for feeling, a deadening of soul, the predator-grade depression Kate Gompert always feels as she withdraws from secret marijuana is itself a feeling. It goes by many names - anguish, despair, torment, or q.v. Burton's melancholia or Yevtuschenko's more authoritative psychotic depression - but Kate Gompert, down in the trenches with the thing itself, knows it simply as It. It is a level of psychic pain wholly incompatible with human life as we know it. It is a sense of radical and thoroughgoing evil not just as a feature but as the essence of conscious existence. It is a sense of poisoning that pervades the self at the self's most elementary levels. It is a nausea of the cells and soul. It is an unnumb intuition in which the world is fully rich and animate and un-map-like and also thoroughly painful and malignant and antagonistic to the self, which depressed self It billows on and coagulates around and wraps in Its black folds and absorbs into Itself, so that an almost mystical unity is achieved with a world every constituent of which means painful harm to the self. Its emotional character, the feeling Gompert describes It as, is probably mostly indescribable except as a sort of double bind in which any/all of the alternatives we associate with human agency - sitting or standing, doing or resting, speaking or keeping silent, living or dying - are not just unpleasant but literally horrible. It is also lonely on a level that cannot be conveyed. There is no way Kate Gompert could ever even begin to make someone else understand what clinical depression feels like, not even another person who is herself clinically depressed, because a person in such a state is incapable of empathy with any other living thing. This anhedonic Inability to Identify is also an integral part of It. If a person in physical pain has a hard time attending to anything except that pain, a clinically depressed person cannot even perceive any other person or thing as independent of the universal pain that is digesting her cell by cell. Everything is part of the problem, and there is no solution. It is a hell for one. The authoritative term psychotic depression makes Kate Gompert feel especially lonely. Specifically the psychotic part. Think of it this way. Two people are screaming in pain. One of them is being tortured with electric current. The other is not. The screamer who's being tortured with electric current is not psychotic : her screams are circumstantially appropriate. The screaming person who's not being tortured, however, is psychotic, since the outside parties making the diagnoses can see no electrodes or measurable amperage. One of the least pleasant things about being psychotically depressed on a ward full of psychotically depressed patients is coming to see that none of them is really psychotic, that their screams are entirely appropriate to certain circumstances part of whose special charm is that they are undetectable by any outside party. Thus the loneliness : it's a closed circuit : the current is both applied and received from within... ...The truth will set you free. But NOT.. until it is finished with you." - D.F. Wallace, Infinite Jest
Don't listen to the critics. This is a good film that could've been great if the director's head wasn't so far up his own asshole. It's worth a watch, but avoid at all costs if you're even slightly sensitive to disturbing violence, especially graphic violence towards children. This film is unapologetically ruthless and cold, but most of it is relevant to the plot and not done for torture porn. It's a 7/10, could've been an 8 or 9 without the 30 minutes of bullshit and terribly written monologues. Lars lowers the quality of his own films in the dumbest of ways, but this is still worth a watch if you can stomach it; the ending is groundbreaking. There are some things in this film that have never been done before, and it was quite an experience, good and bad. 7/10
Jeremy Smirnov Dillion is a phenomenal actor that’s underrated. Watch him in other interviews. I think there was tension here, Lars was a bit off. And it set the tone

Lars von thriller
Lars Von trier is my favorite director because he doesn’t give a fuck about what people will think
He just represents his thoughts in his films
Facts 👌
Mine is Lynch. That said, I'm not a huge fan of Trier's depression trilogy, but The House... was phenomenal.
I don't know about that, I think he is deliberately playing with what people will think, and deliberately mocking then and himself! (I love it.)
He definitely cares. He was upset by the reaction to his infamous Cannes comments. He's wanted badly to win the Palme d'Or. He was hurt by what Bjork said about him. But he continues to provoke, that's what's great about him.
Matt dillon blew me away with this performance
Matt Dillon is amazing in certain poetic things. Check out Factotum and Rumble Fish too.
@@magnuskallas thank you for the recommend !! i will !
He blew me away with his response, here! What an insight.
I am Jack's complete lack of surprise
Hello beautiful person scrolling through the comments section -- Sending you positive and healing vibes and a huge virtual hug ❤
i want that cap that matt is wearing
This was my favorite film that Lars has made
Am I the only one who burst out laughing at the ending when Percy Mayfield's "Hit the Road Jack" immediatly started playing? Such an absurd film. Imagine being the CGI artist who had to animate little kids getting shot? SMH...
You're not the only one. That was hilarious. Perfect choice of music :D
I think the design of the stages of Hell was BEAUTIFUL, but that kid scene… damn
Lars Von trier is the God of film making.

What career? Lmao

NoxiouS yea not since Drugstore Cowboy..that was perfect

What kept it from being a masterpiece?

I am always shocked at how many people are on set for even simple shots like that opening clip
How do I get that hat?
Alex Goubeaux my thoughts exactly
Shouldn't Mr. Dillon look a lot older by now? Good for him; he was great in the film.
01:23 Larsh von Thriller is my favorite band
hahah
I love this movie
The more unsettling and graphic the movie is, the more it appeals to me.

@@nupraptorthementalist3306 "American Psycho" and "Man Bites Dog" come to mind. Especially, the latter one
Henry Portrait of a Serial Killer is way up there.
weirdly enough it is true! women do love stuff about serial killers
But yet there is a me too movement about misogyny and it’s ok to kill them in your films. 2 face Hollywood hypocrisy!!!
@@theoutabodies5653 i will agree
Brilliant Lars
When Lars was talking the actors was feelling a bit uncomfortable I guess)))) Movie is a masterpiece)))).
Awesome movie
My god, who is holding this camera, cmon people........
Is there a reason I'm still having trouble recognizing that woman as uma thurman?
Gran Película La Casa De Jack
I cant wait to see this movie. Dec 28th 2018 it will be in the movie theater.
