starstuff Posted January 22 Report Share Posted January 22 i saw it in the theater and it was such a moving experience. afterwards, i felt so emotionally drained, but i couldn't go home. my friend and i had to commiserate selma's fate over drinks.at first a bit slow, with jagged hand-held shots, but it drew you into the chracterization of selma and her desperate plight.i felt the same way after requiem for a dream. different context but that same emotional wretching feeling. highly recommended.cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

earthborn Posted January 22 Report Share Posted January 22 I believe Bjork to be an incredible vocalist and artist. And by the looks of these reviews, her acting ability may be as intense. I've definitely put this film on my 'must-see-before-I-die' list. Unfortunately, chances are that I'm gonna have to wait for video. Oh well...c'est la vie.

saigray Posted January 22 Report Share Posted January 22 Hey dere, boy! IMHO, this was the Best Movie of the Year, if you think films should be works of art; beautiful, powerful and yeah sometimes painful. Of course Gladiator will prob. win the Best Picture Oscar, while Dancer will be nominated for best song and lose to Disney and Elton John- that's hollywood for ya.

wizard Posted January 22 Report Share Posted January 22 this film is truly a masterpiece, no questions. bjork is excellent, top to bottom, acting, music, everything. Lars Von Trier, is a mastermind, and the father of the "Dogme Rules", which is a set of guidelines written, it's a manifesto of sorts, that is basically set up as a complete opposite of hollywood film making. they are very strict rules, concerning what types of cameras can be used, how the score is to be created, and concerning the story itself. im not an expert on the dogme art of film making, but i know a thing or two about it. if you search for info on Lars, whom was the director of 'Dancer", you will find the dogme manifesto. ultimately, my understanding is that the directors involved are to rely on original creation, old skool (if you will) film making. the stories are not often happy endings, and always evoke emotion, as they are humanist based storylines.Dancer did not follow the rules, but they didnt set out to. Lars set out to make a musical, and i think he couldnt have done better than Bjork for the role. best film i have seen in years.anyway, enough out of me...enjoystephen------------------we must cultivate our gardens...

vejita Posted January 22 Report Share Posted January 22 Very moving movie, although it didn't pull as many emotional strings as "Saving Private Ryan" did for me. Still, the dance sequences in the movie are both warped and beautiful at the same time.... and yes, the soundtrack is amazing.-------------------=Vejita=-"Live through the week.

nlichau Posted January 22 Report Share Posted January 22 Yes- I saw it. It was very powerful and moving! I cried through most of it-and it takes alot to make me cry like that.I thought Bjork was awsome and so was the music.------------------The music makes the people come together...
