I got a chance to revist Lars Von Trier‘s “Dancer in the Dark” last night. I had totally forgotten what a bleak, depressing piece of cinema it is. I had forgotten just how brilliant Bjork is in the movie (as well as the rest of the cast). I had forgotten just how damn ballsy the movie is … a fractured take on the traditional Hollywood musical. “I’ve Seen It All” breaks my heart ever time I hear it. I recommend you checking it out if you enjoy movies as much as I do.

I agree, Dancer In The Dark was brilliant and heartbreaking; I definitely recommend seeing it. But when we left the theater, I swore never to see it again. (It was a while before I could even listen to the soundtrack.)
I agree with Casey… I’m happy I saw it and I’m happy I’ll never ever have to sit through it again. 😛
