This film bored me at first but I couldn’t get it out of my head post-watch. The more I thought about it, the more I liked it. The first dogme film happens to be a borderline masterpiece.
True, but I watched it, knowing the plot and to be honest I was still shocked when the reveal came. I think the most shocking thing is the collective denial. Great film. Loved The Hunt also.
Mark.
Don't. Give. Away. The revelation.
Still never seen the film but have watched the stage version. Quite a roller coaster of emotions.

Why ruin the film by giving away the speech revelation?

To be honest the film is about so much more than the speech, the nighttime scene with the piano and the morning after completely trumps it
Vinterberg > Von Trier
