Saw it today. Don't really know what to make of all of this, but I don't think I liked it very much... Great final shot and acting, though. Need to think more clearly about it to write something actually interesting.

still dying to see this so I didn't read the article.

NY times piece about the music:

this is a great read and analyse of the movie:

FREEDOM IN OBLIVION: POST-FEMINIST POSSIBILITIES
IN LARS VON TRIER'S MELANCHOLIA

Dead link, homey.

It was working fine when he posted it three months ago.

I don't think anyone can be expected to make sure that every link they've ever posted stays current for the rest of their lives.

rewatched this yesterday

I don't think it's "wow the best movie ever made!" anymore, but I'll still return to it regularly because of Justine and Dunst's performance in the first half

It's one of those movies I absolutely love but I'm afraid to rewatch because it's so affecting and sad. Lars is one of the few filmmakers who can do that. Maybe if I get back on Lexapro I'll give it another go.

You should absolutely watch it again. The first half of this precipitated a fight between me and my girlfriend which the second half of it resolved. Uniquely powerful movie.
