Lars von Trier. Finding truth in film
Description
The cinematic movement known as Dogme 95 espouses minimalist, reality-based productions. Although he helped found the movement, Lars von Trier has set aside its original guidelines, employing more elaborate filmmaking techniques and higher budgets-while still creating subtle and challenging motion pictures. This entertaining and provocative interview illuminates von Trier's childhood, his tenuous relationship with his parents, his views on religion and agnosticism, his thoughts about casting movie stars, and his opinions concerning American culture-a particularly complex subject since his fear of flying prevents him from visiting the United States.
