| A Taste of LARS VON TRIER: Period 3: (''Post Dogma'') ''DANCER IN THE DARK'' A Taste of LARS VON TRIER Period Three: “Post Dogma” Dancer in the Dark (Directed by Lars von Trier/Denmark/2000/140mins.)  With Björk, Catherine Deneuve, David Morse, Joel Grey, Jean-Marc Barr Winner of the Cannes Film Festival Palm d’Or in 2000, Dancer In The Dark once again shows Lars von Trier’s refusal to play the same game as everyone else. In a genre-bending move, he creates a heart wrenching story of Selma (played by Björk, who also won Best Actress at Cannes and vowed never to act again after this experience), a Czech immigrant in rural America who is going blind, but finds meaning in life through the fantasy of classic Hollywood musicals. Tragic drama meets sing and dance, in one of the most unusual, original, and artistic musical films ever made. WINNER: Cannes Film Festival Palm d’Or, Best Actress European Film Awards Best Film, Director, Actress Goya Awards Best European Film Independent Spirit Awards Best Foreign Film National Board of Review Best Performance by an Actress “ASTONISHING! AN EXHILERATING AND ORIGINAL WORK OF CINEMA! A Triamph of form, content, and artistic integrity!”-Entertainment Weekly  Thursday, November 19, 2009 at 8:00 PM Miami Beach Cinematheque 512 Espanola Way Miami Beach, FL 33139 Phone: (305) 673-4567 Website: www.mbcinema.com E-Mail: info@mbcinema.com Map & Directions |
