Melancholia 2011 review - trailer

After the press conference for the controversial director Lars von Trier at Cannes 2011, which resulted in granting the director persona non grata, which was sadly rare in the severity of what happened and described. In fact, there are still remnants of this situation, but the quality of the movie makes me think that sometimes one can not remember the interview, while many will remember from the movie. For von Trier, the passage in question (and this was not the first), but still talented.

There is a mention that the director has angered environmental advocates, sacrificing an animal on the set of Manderlay? Must be the same thing happens now in pain, because the film is much larger than indicated.

Regardless of all this, to move: The film is a little masterpiece, as is the former managing director at the time of the Antichrist. Although the productions are very different from plain to see some similarities between them. I'm not just a great Charlotte Gainsbourg, and films of the abuse of classic sound and intense, and very well with the sequences in slow motion at first, not to mention the division into chapters - the mark of the film, Lars von Trier.



Melancholia (in original) refers to one of the great monuments of classical music and Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, but more conducive to the resumption of critical mass by Mozart. Production offered disaster movie, but do not expect a lot of special effects in films as Roland Emmerich (after tomorrow), and the focus here is on history. In fact, the same research to more than portray a family of natural disasters.

The production is divided into two chapters, which was the name of Justin and Claire, for the sisters, with Kirsten Dunst and the lives of Charlotte Gainsbourg, and in preparation for the beautiful scenes of the cycle divided Wagner. The first part describes the marriage of Michael and Justin (Alexander Skarsgard, True Blood series), while the second shows how Clare's family, the fact that the planet is approaching Earth from sorrow. The interesting point in the division into chapters that the film focuses not only work but also the role of information technology.

As with other chapters seem quite movies relevant to a simple and nothing very interesting, and despite the fact that people can have different conclusions, it is difficult for someone who does not recognize, we believe that the pessimistic view of Lars von Trier for company. In a collision between Earth and the sad truth is that our planet will not survive outside, but what the Danish director to show that the internal situation in a bid to the brink of disaster.

"madness" Justin is the belief that people only tell the story of a woman director, but the way the performance characteristics of other characters that the problem is much worse. Queen of selfishness in mourning. Father (John Hurt), Justin is more interested in attention to women beautiful mother-daughter (Charlotte Rampling) tries to determine their view of the anti-wedding, wedding day, the boss (Stellan Skarsgard), which are used for testing I can not think of anything outside of work, and his brother (Kiefer Sutherland), is talking like a lot in the last match. Sutherland stepped and selfish character in the second half, with the position of a coward who is not at all times and I remember Jack Bauer in 24 hours.

Film has a remarkable filmmaker Manuel Alberto Claro. Most of the scenes taken during the wedding dinner with camera in hand, move the viewer a feeling that this is the last of the raw numbers in the room. Soundtracks, as well as classic and previously mentioned, in search of some famous songs and the fundamental frequency, such as "Strangers in the Night" and "smile", a film's musical director.

Art direction and costumes attract much attention, and should not be surprising that only the minimum of the film von Trier, Dogfel. Among the actions is difficult to highlight one, then the entire cast is good, but it's hard not to mention the strong presence of Kirsten Dunst. He was known as the triple Mary Jane Spider-Man, has shown great talent, and represented in the suicide and the Virgin Mary Antoinette - Sofia Coppola equal - and does its best performance. She won the Best Actress award at Cannes for her role.

There are no easy solutions or any kind of pain redemption. It is long, and how much of Trier, which leaves the viewer almost in a coma after the meeting. You can not love, but it's hard not to get involved.
