    I realize this is the red hot discourse of 2003, but I have never been entirely sure how the photos of American poverty in the closing credits of Dogville are meant to relate to the rest of the film, which may be why the film is so readily read as reflexively anti-American.

    Should that matter? Blackbox larps rely on imagination, like the movie Dogville. But clearly physical verisimilitude can help with immersion, even if it can also be constraining. Also they can be aesthetically pleasing and just a really cool spectacle.

    Probably the most minimalist film you'll find. Even deprived of great cinematography and sets, it's still compelling and never boring. Being that it's 3 hours long, that's impressive. The picture and sound quality are great. Definitely recommend this one. #dogville #larsvontrier #filmsky #curzon

    Pasolini's Salo/120 Days of Sodom - Nobody ever regrets watching it. Bad Boy Bubby - One of many grim Aussie films of that era. A classic. The Warzone - Tim Roth's directorial feature. Incestuous rape introducing Colin Farrell in his feature debut. Drowning By Numbers/ A Zed and Two Noughts - Peter Greenaway shoots his films like renaissance paintings.

    Finally, an excuse to share my FAVORITE review of Dogville (2003)! As a heads up, it's pretty mean, but calling the movie "boringly excessively rapey" and telling fans "oh, sorry, should I put a chalk outline saying CAVE down so you know where you the fuck are?" are just too good.

    re Lars von Trier. The first movie I saw by him was Dancer In The Dark. It threw me against the wall and beat the shit out of me. It's good, and I never want to watch it again. But. Dogville, Melancholia, & The House That Jack Built were more palatable for me & i love all 3 & will gladly rewatch.

    In an era of twist-ending movies, this one was particularly well done. Side note: when I was married, before we had kids, we frequently vacationed in Ashland, OR. One summer we were there, we saw this at the Varsity theater. The next time we were there, we saw a different bummer NK film: “Dogville”

    I worked at Blockbuster in college. Dogville was on our loop but the clips they showed didn’t make it clear what a weird movie it was. Then people rented it and returned it complaining “the sets were missing.” After I got a job editing and quit my manager was arrested for embezzlement.

    The film Dogville captures this idea really well. I relate in a way, growing up privileged with this romantic pastoralism ideal of the "common man". I moved to the country in California and got a rude awakening. Rural folks might be baking pies and putting on their Sunday best, but underneath?

    yes, the thing I was pointing to in the original post was the multiple realization issue, as distinct from the Brooke Smith/Alyson Hannigan issue! the issue in the film transfers over to plays--even more so because plays have sketchier backgrounds than films (except Dogville)--but not vice versa
