"Adapted from mad genius Lars Von Trier's hilarious 'office-style' film, comes a clever and 'severely stylish' play about an out of work actor hired to pretend to be the boss of a failing company.

"Film -- Biography-- With six entries at the Cannes Film Festival thus far, Lars von Trier has been a Cannes award winner four times. Without question, he is the most intriguing film director to emerge in Denmark since the days of his great mentor in spirit Carl Theodor Dreyer. A relentless visionary, von Trier (b. 1956) has succeeded not only in realizing his projects but also in managing to gather substantial audiences to his films. Br ..."

The Kingdom - Series One

ISBN-13: 978-1-4172-0023-8, ISBN: 1-4172-0023-5

"The Kingdom has been described as "ER meets Twin Peaks", and seldom can the standard and the surreal have met in more perfect accord. The hospital that conceals dark secrets is the premise for this riveting "soap"--seen on Danish TV in 1994--in which science and civilisation are eroded by superstition and instinct. Lars von Trier is not a director who aims to please, and the claustrophobic visuals he draws from handheld cameras and natu ..."

"State-of-the-art medical facility Kingdom Hospital sits upon the site of a tragic mill fire, and some say the spirits of those who died haunt it. Artist Peter Rickman is left for dead after a hit-and-run accident and is frequented by visions of a young ghost named Mary and the strange beast Antubis. An accident lands Peter's assailant in the same recovery room. Self-proclaimed psychic and hypochondriac Mrs. Druse holds a séance for the ..."






The Five Obstructions
by Claus Nissen, Majken Algren Nielsen, Jacqueline Arenal, Lars Von Trier, Daniel Hernandez Rodriguez, Asger Leth, Ole John, Sophie Destin, Vivian Rosa, Jørgen Leth, Carsten Holst, Patrick Bauchau, Bent Christensen, Marie Dejaer, Stina Ekblad, Five Obstructions, directed by Jørgen Leth, Lars von Trier
Dvd, Published 2004 by Koch Lorber Films

ISBN-13: 978-1-4172-0061-0, ISBN: 1-4172-0061-8

"Once upon a time--1967, to be precise--Danish director Jørgen Leth released The Perfect Human. In The Five Obstructions, fellow countryman Lars von Trier (Breaking the Waves) challenges his "hero" to remake the short five times and provides a different set of "obstructions" for each. Because Leth likes cigars, von Trier suggests the first be made in Cuba. For the second, however, he sends Leth to "the worst place on earth"--Bombay's red ..."






Epidemic
by Allan De Waal, Ole Ernst, Michael Gelting, Colin Gilder, Svend Ali Hamann, Lars Von Trier, Henning Bendtsen, Thomas Krag, Jacob Eriksen, Niels Vørsel, directed by Lars von Trier
Dvd, Published 2004 by Homevision

ISBN-13: 978-0-7800-2670-4, ISBN: 0-7800-2670-5

"It's reassuring to know Lars von Trier was always unconventional. Epidemic, von Trier's second feature, comes close to being a horror movie, except it keeps derailing itself to noodle while a director (played by von Trier) and screenwriter (screenwriter Niels Vorsel) improvise a scenario about a plague epidemic. Their struggles are shot in grainy 16 mm., while flashes of the intended film are in stunning 35. Epidemic is meandering enoug ..."






Medea

Multiple Formats, Color, Ntsc, Subtitled
ISBN-13: 978-1-56580-339-8, ISBN: 1-56580-339-6

"Lars von Trier claimed to be in psychic communication with the late Carl Theodor Dreyer (The Passion of Joan of Arc), on whose screenplay the film is based, during the shooting. This brilliantly original exploration of the dark passions of a woman scorned unfolds in shimmering North Sea marshlands and gloomy subterranean passageways. Von Trier (Dancer in the Dark) has created a haunting work of mythic realism. Loosely adapted from the p ..."

"Masterpiece or masquerade? Lars von Trier's digicam musical split the critics in two when it debuted at Cannes in 2000. There were those who saw it as a cynical shock-opera from a manipulative charlatan, others wept openly at its scenes of raw emotion and heart-rending intensity. There is, however, no in-between. Dancer in the Dark is that rarest of creatures, a film that dares to push viewers to the limits of their feelings. In her fi ..."

ISBN-13: 978-0-7800-2327-7, ISBN: 0-7800-2327-7

"Way, way before he dreamt up his famous Dogme manifesto, Lars von Trier launched his feature-film career with The Element of Crime and proved that, 400 years after Hamlet, the Danes can still do melancholy like nobody else. Less a film noir than a film jaune sale, this ultra-enigmatic thriller is shot entirely in tones of grimy sepia in a world where nightfall seems to be an unceasing condition. A police detective, Fisher (Michael Elphi ..."

"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 si ..."
