I’ve seen nearly everything Lars von Trier has done except “The Kingdom I & II” and his TV film version of “Medea”.

He’s the filmmaker I wish I could be in terms of cinematic honesty, the ability to be uncompromising, and someone who will face his fears through film. The fact that he managed to piss off so many people with a film called “Antichrist” fucking rules! He’s got the balls to make a film called “Antichrist” that lives up to his name. We have too many filmmakers thanking God. It’s time to give Satan some credit for once. Satan Bless Lars von Trier!!!!!!

Finally, some Cannes splash! It seemed so dreary over there, one could easily forget the festival was ongoing.

That aside, if anything, all this free publicity (both the good and the bad) help the film immensely! Who wouldn’t want to see it now, given how strong the responses have been from all sides.

I think he’s loving all this.

Now which American distributor will be bold enough to pick it up? Or has it already a distributor?
