THE FIVE OBSTRUCTIONS
A MUST-SEE film so remove all obstructions between you and the theater playing this film - RUN don't walk!!!
3-1/2 stars [De Fem Benspaend/(2003)Denmark-Belgium-Switzerland-France/2004 USA release] - (1 hr. 31 min.)
Co-written & co-directed by Jorgen Leth & Lars von Trier
Mini-Review:
Is there such a thing as a perfect film, or a perfect human being? Or a perfect filmmaker for that matter? Perhaps the only way to test these types of hypotheses is to deconstruct them and then reconstruct them again with certain, shall we say, obstructions.
Anyone who's ever even thought of making a film will be completely intrigued by this process that Lars puts veteran director JorgenLeth through and the unbelievable results of the experiment.
Don't let anyone obstruct your progress to the boxoffice when this one opens at a theater near you, you won't want to miss a single frame of any of the five resulting films!
Bravo Lars! Bravo Jorgen!
With: Jorgen Leth, Lars von Trier, Jacqueline Arenal, Daniel Hernandez Rodriguez, Patrick Bauchau, Alexandra Vandernoot, Claus Nissen, and Maiken Algren
