I’m going to warn you right now that this is not a great clip that’s emerged from Melancholia, right before its Cannes debut. Anyone familiar with Von Trier knows that his films require a linear investment of attention, as they continually build on their own snowballing sense of dread. Yanking an oblique conversation about the world being evil out of context isn’t a great idea, I don’t think. That said, you get to see Kirsten Dunst and Charlotte Gainsbourg in action, and at least get a taste of the beautiful photography. Of course, there’s also the excellent full trailer for that, but if you care to have a peek…
I’m eager to hear what the Cannes reactions are to the film, even if I’m likely to completely disregard them. You can not simply be told what a Von Trier film is, you have to see it for yourself.

Melanchlipia? Really? You can’t even make it through a title without a mispelling?
Say the title out loud, and then look at what the story is about. Or be an asshole, whatever works best.
I was wondering if I was just missing something…. But to be fair, you misspell a lot of stuff 😀
I need to see this NOW.
i need this movie. this is my wrestlemania.
Am I the only who was unimpressed with the trailer, and even severely underwhelmed? And I loved Antichrist.
The movie just looks goofy.
