There aren't many "serious" directors that would have the guts to make this kind of film. Luckily, people like Lars von Trier are around.
von Trier's ability to tell stories of the truly good human being is outstanding, this film, as well as "Breaking the Waves", is practically up there with Dostoyevsky's "The Idiot" - all three of these works made me cry like a baby.
Oh, and Björk is fantastic. She suffered hard, but it made a beautiful work of art. Good bless her. And Lars.
