Dogville

“I think the world would be better without Dogville.” I think that too 😭🙏🙏 Dogville is an outstanding film not only because of it’s minimalistic set and experimental work but also because of the raw form Von Trier offers a view of the cruelty and hypocrisy of humanity accompanied by a troubled relationship between the conditional and unconditional that truly never let a chance of choosing between them. The tone of the movie, with the big close ups for the public to see and encapsulate the feelings of Grace and also the community that make me think, they’re only existing for the torture of her and also the representation of a society that only exists for the good of the people on it, making them feel superior and if they could do anything they want to other people they don’t “recognize” only for themselves and selfishness. I must admit that ending which was being constructed with a slowly pace for like the last 50-40 minutes was so satisfying for me. As the movie continued i felt the pain and the cruelty Grace was feeling throughout the film and just at the end my point of view of who was really the “villian” has been completely changed. I recommend revising this film if you like experimental films and also if you want to get disturbed. Lars von trier is making it to one of my favorite directors of all time.
