Lars von Trier interviewed by Mark Kermode on The Culture Show

[vokshumana]

Friend, ``Breaking The Waves`` is his best film.

[DessyTheTvFanatic]

LOL to the expression on Mark's face at 2:57

[mauicomp]

I love how this guy destroys himself every chance he gets especially at the end,

"I can say now you are truly sincere"(sic)

"Then I have totally manipulated you". He hilariously can't stop, its like a compulsion to destroy his own reputation/image and that makes him more brutally self honest than anyone :)

He's obviously not a Nazi but who cares he's an idiot and a genius of idiocy.

[conewells]

Lars is a TRUE visionary. Just look at MELANCHOLIA. Haters should give him a break.

[asocial33]

i dislike breaking the waves too, but idiots really impressed me

[navylaks2]

As a dane i can simply say that Lars fucked up:)

[TulseLuper]

The Nazi comment was blown so out of proportion. He made a bad joke, it backfired, get the hell over it. Very good interview. An honest conversation between two intelligent and delightful egomaniacs.

[Blunders1000]

Full credit to them both.

Fair play to Dr K for being honest with Von Trier and telling him to his face that he hates some of his films and that he thinks he sometimes says things he doesn't mean to get a reaction.

I hate it when interviewers fall over themselves to fawn over their interviewee and say how wonderful they/their work is, when on another programme (with the subject not around) they'll say what they really think. I'm looking at you Jonathan Ross.

And fair play to Von Trier for

[Clivepom]

Weird how this could be one of his last interviews ever....

[VidakOrlovicBG]

I like how that woman seid :"What a load of crap!" Right after Lars's staitment :D

[robertkeeganwalker]

@VidakOrlovicBG Bit of Kermode editing, there, dya think? ;)

[ChrisKadaver]

Spoiler alert?! :o

[UKNOWIT88]

Von Trier is so goddamn obnoxious

[JustNoise]

where is the rest of the hour they allegedly spent talking to each other.

[8jbird]

Melancolia is incredible. Now I am a fan.

[thememoryremains100]

this guy makes shitty films

[dornravlin]

i realy like dancer in the dark

[Black123Beard]

Just a guy who tried to make a joke, and only then realized it might sound inappropriate. As to what he said about Hitler, it is pretty clear he only meant that Hitler was an intereting historical figure.

[BMgallery]

@Black123Beard No, he stated that he "understands most of him" the person, and "simpatizes him a bit",you could take as a (ironic)joke but that "cover" you suggest does not fit with his allegedly joke

[Black123Beard]

@BMgallery I don't get it. What "cover" is that you think i suggest?

By the way, to sympathize can also mean to feel sorry for someone.

[Alienshoes101]

[shitsumeilegumovitch]

Thanks! I've been trying to find this for the past 10 days - the BBC site won't play outside the UK.

[Clivepom]

Thanks for this.
