Description
This week’s Unwatchables welcomes Vanity Fair's chief critic Richard Lawson to discuss one of the most audacious and savage provocations from one of our most relentless provocateurs. Lars Von Trier’s Dogville is a 3-hour critique of American “values” that’s filmed on a mostly bare soundstage and puts its star Nicole Kidman through one of the director’s most harrowing gauntlets of suffering. Topics include the distancing effect of the film’s artificial presentation, how it holds up in a post-Bush era, and if Von Tier’s misanthropy got the best of him this time.
