  • le meilleur film qui existe a mes yeux

  • ooo quiero llorar otra vez!

  • @pagandude1 Amazon. Or Barns and Nobile might be able to get it for you. There are scenes on YouTube you can see im sure.

  • nice video :

  • This is the most depressing movie ever made.

  • Let's tell THE WHOLE TRUTH.

    US congresswoman Cynthia McKinney has come out and blamed the pro-Israel Lobby in America (AIPAC, ADL, ZOA, etc) for ruining her political career. While in congress she refused to sign the pro-Israel pledge and took a pro-Palestinian stance. Because of this, McKinney said “war was declared” on her by the Jewish lobby. In 2009 she told TIU's Ognir that “more than 99% of Congress work for Pro Zionist Israeli interests.”

  • no se porke chingados me retuerzo de risa cuando se cae y muere, y cuando veo los lentes muero de panico y lloro a cantaros:(

  • Holy fuck it really was Bjork.

  • I didn't know Bjork was executed.

  • Fuck!

  • 5:39 that will save you some time

  • Death penalties are fucking horrific. No one deserves that. NO one.

  • @HylianSpirit seriously? so i will go and rape and murder your family now. and let me be happy in knowing that i will not die because you belive that "NO one" deserves the death penalty. kay.

  • @AirsoftAttack231 What good does killing the man who wronged you do, other than satisfy some sort of draconian bloodlust?

    Tell me. What if the man who does something horrible gets in to an accident, and is afflicted with amnesia that wipes his memory of the last 10 years. What happens to the thing within the man that made him deserve death? A man, for however horrible his deed, is not in himself, his crime.

  • @AirsoftAttack231 obviously you have not seen the whole movie. go and see it before you make stupid comments like that.

  • god, I wish bjork was hung irl

  • Literally laughed as loud as I possibly could after she got hung while singing. Put an end to the atrocity. Huzzah!

  • I love Bjork. The Juniper tree was good too. She played in that =D

  • @Lunabeam1 The Juniper Tree ? where do i find that??

  • @berryje1964 My god your fucking fat

  • That's why she said she never watches the end. I knew it was gonna be sad.

  • Saw this film when it came out and don't care to see it again either; all I know is that Bjork was stopped from singing, and that, in my opinion, was the best part.

  • god at least let her finish the song

  • Lars Von Trier es un genio, nadie como él para mostrar la parte más oscura del alma humana.

  • omg omg.

    i didn't knew this girl was Bjork, even though it sounded like her singing

  • my brain can't handle this

  • LOL

  • this movie made me an instant Björk&Lars von Trier fan.

  • this is fucked man... i made all these comments before i seen that... but this is fucked man.... what an angel she was (even tho it's just a movie it still depicts reality)

  • bjork is so beautiful hard to watch but i'm depressed so i looked this up... i'm fucked

  • i don't give a shit how many people one kills, you don't stoop down to their level or the murdering shit will be ENDLESS. humans will never learn

  • Son of a bitch, Poor Selma!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Well, yes, it is sad as hell, but in the end, she died happy for her child, singing, with no fear... It is actually not that bad at all...

  • This is the most saddest movie I've ever seen ...when I watch this movie , I cry ...always ...and it's the only movie that has ever made me cry !

  • this is the first movie that really broke my heart.

    and I've seen Breaking the waves and Dogville.

    people who weep over the Titanic movie - don't watch this!

  • Just swinging for this singing :D

  • This movie it's an amazing portrait of our reality, the last message was dedicated to those evil souls that are trying to take over our world. Liars Von Trier its one of my most favorite dorectors.

  • intresting very intresting

  • SADDEST SCENE EVER.

  • Damn! Whenever I fell depressed I watch this movie nad cry my heart out.

  • this is the only movie that has ever made me cry

  • @17marci i do ...

  • @17marci Same here.....I cried so much in this movie...

  • @17marci then check out 'million dollar baby', you'll lose it

  • The thing I love about Bjork is that though she's an atheist, she's very spiritual and it bleeds through to her art.

  • pwned

  • whaouuuuuu ! what a schock

  • I can't freaking handle this :(

  • I cry,everytime.Damn.

  • no q rudo ya la avia visto pero el recordar el final me hiso llorar pero buen aporte bjork la amo

  • as pro-death penalty as i am, it's heartbreaking to watch this.

  • @crubs83 hopefully that's because you're not in favor of unjust death penalty...?

  • @crubs83 i can't believe you're still pro death after watching this... she was innocent. many people are

  • @pinkthunderwonder your kidding, right? i love the movie because it's purpose was to show how inhumane the death penalty is but come on, she was not completely innocent. she beat that fuck straight to hell.

  • @aarobinson89 are you retarded? she was framed

  • @pinkthunderwonder no shit sherlock. and yes, I have seen the movie. a few times. no shit she was framed but come on, she killed him because he asked her to but in no matter what court of law selma would have never been seen as innocent. you'll understand when your older.

  • @aarobinson89 oh i didn't know she actually killed someone. yet, even if she did i wouldn't kill her like that cause that's too much. and nope, i understand it now, i just haven't watched the movie. derp

  • @pinkthunderwonder But the guy that she killed practicaly made her kill him. You should watch that movie, it's so beautiful and heart.breaking. I seriously recommend it.

  • @pinkthunderwonder HAHA herp derp

  • Why was she hanged? o:

  • @MangoPuff Don't you should watch the movie before the final scene??? xD

  • @MangoPuff watch the movie! lol she was hung for a crime she didnt commit.... the landlord stole her money and claimed that she stole from him.... he made her kill him with a gun and set her up.. making him looke like the 'good guy'

  • i knew i heard Bjork in there :D

  • She ain't gon' be in dancer in da dark 2

    Lol jk jk.

  • @whoiswhobutwho that wasn't even funny...

  • @AssassinTheHasson

    watch the movie jackass, then come back and make a comment.

  • @muserocks01 No way, after seeing this scene I can tell you I'm not going to watch it. I was just wondering why I should feel sad over such a rewarding scene.

  • @AssassinTheHasson You probably have to watch the WHOLE movie, not just the scene that everyone says is sad, to understand why the scene is sad...

  • @AssassinTheHasson

    go and see some crap like "A walk to remember", you fucking idiot.

  • @ElizabatAlex lol no

  • when your about to die does it really mater that you cant brath!?!?!?!?!?!

  • heartbreaking execution scene,

  • explain what the movies about please?

  • If you're just here for the hanging part, skip to 5:40 where the action is.

  • OMFG. Those evil fucking bastards. Murdering in the name of justice. Death to the death penalty!!!!

  • The most depressing movie I have ever seen with amazing acting.

  • Why did they kill her??

  • i cry....

    

  • an really impressing movie...with great music!

  • heart breaking....

  • Selma he needs his mother,NOOOO he needs his eyes,,,

  • i know im not supposed to laugh but....

  • ;(((

  • :_(

  • In some countries even today they still have the death penalty , whether its by stoning or worse. Selma lives , I agree and we can still change the evil judicary system.

  • the judicial system man has built to judge each other as guilty or innocent is as flawed as the species that imposes it - it is built upon not only a flawed equation and a theory about 'justice' that ignores not only mankind's ability to make mistakes, but mankind's capabiity to forgive -

  • Im an oldfag now :D

  • Lol'd.

  • I hate this I hate this I hate this

  • I sobbed hysterically during this. I even think my neighbors heard me.

  • iv never seen this movie but this gave me the chills

  • My heart stops beating.

  • FUCKING TROLLS. Give me 10 lbs of C4 and and a M249 SAW and I would have saved her. Abolish the death penalty.

  • She's a great actor; you really feel this whole scene is real. I can't stand to see Selma suffering.

  • @danielmountain You're a fucking idiot.

  • @danielmountain yea your an idiot, it's a good movie.

  • Ill admit, there is a guy who looks so much like david morse character that I know.. and I can't help but relate him to this, ugh too good of acting I hate him :) and his evil wife, great film :))

    Its just life.

  • Von Trier...you are brilliant, but SADISTIC!!

  • BASTARDS AMERICANS !!!

    YOU HAVE MURDERED SO MANY INNOCENT PEOPLE !!!

    LIFE IS NOT COMING BACK FROM DEATH IN CASE OF WRONG JUDICIAL DECISION...

  • @1999temp Please... I'm german but I think you cannot prejudice ALL the americans. I'm sure lots of american teens don't think as the lawyers do. so come on man...

  • "You were right, Selma! Listen to your heart!"

    I started bawling.

  • @mcjmetroid: Lmao your so mean. xD

  • Lol at 5:38 :D

  • @mcjmetroid Man you SHOCKED me !! :O

  • @mcjmetroid Yeah it's soo funny. Especially the part where they hang her and she dies!! LMFAO

  • @terepotere

    It's more how she dies Mid-singing.. I laugh at the strangest things in movies though :D Good movie all the same

  • @SvalbardJanMayen1976 It's a movie, from the 60s... Were not remorseless killers like depicted in the movie 

  • @ChristinaWolfle

    Well, Chistina, Von Trier's film Dancer in the Dark won Cannes in the year 2000. Is a musical (US art) inspired after the racist politics on Death Penalty in Texas executed by ex president Bush against blacks and hispanic (chicanos or wet backs) people at the turn of the Century charged as criminals, without fair trails and just laws which recieved a strong opposition in Europe and Latinamerica. ADN samples proved some prisioners sentenced to die were innocent, yes?

  • @betokkikke well for one thing your referring to redneck corrept goverment, not me or my friends who all live in america.. In which I partly dislike and partly ignore

  • @ChristinaWolfle Sí, Christina, I didn't mean to offend US people nor you with my comments but you know here's not so much space to write long ideas, thanks for answer me and well, I saw that film in Madrid, Spain, during the Fall of 2000 just after french publications (Le Nouvelle Observateur, Le Monde) printed special magazines on Bush' Death Row. But you're right, Dancer... recreates Washington State of 1964 and Björk (Salma) rehearses The Sound of Music (musical, 1959; film, 1965)!

  • This is the most powerful scene in all of cinema.

  • J'oublie le rôle qu'elle joue. Pour moi, c'est comme si on me tuait Björk. Épouvantable ! Surtout qu'elle joue bien ! :'(

  • OMG!!!!!!!!! I cried like crazy in this movie, the best movie ever!

  • Easily the best acting I've ever seen. Particularly in this scene, it was extreme.

  • @AdeonC - And Julia Fucking Roberts won the Oscar for Erin Fucking Brocovich

  • Bjork is so beautiful.

  • This movie is beyond phenomenal. Bjork did a fantastic job ;~;

  • This scene gives me such a fucking boner.

  • I'll do it like Selma always does. I watch until 3:12, before she starts singing the last song of the film, and then I get out of YouTube - even though it hasn't got a happy ending. But if I do it this way, Selma won't die and lives on forever.

  • @butterflypiano :) For a longer period of time after watching the film originally also I could not make it through the actual hanging.

  • @butterflypiano

    I've always felt that Selma warns you throughout the movie to not watch the end.......I only did once....never again :) It truly rips your heart out and shows it to you.

  • @butterflypiano that's so damn corny, it's a friggin MOVIE.

  • brilliant, stunning, genius; acting, composing, singing; this woke me up to Bjork

  • Very NiceFilm but so sad((((((

  • So sad and pretty*

  • So sad and

  • this seriously damages my heart

  • The point when she is about to go high on the notes and the hatch opens feels like a punch to the stomach. And I love the little detail with the curtains. As Von Trier said himself "She doesn't act, she feels".

  • Comment removed

  • @MrCrazyguy145 Wow, someone totally missed the point....

  • @ralph3nuis Wasn't me.

  • I just suffer watching her in that way. I love her :(

  • Oh God... I am crying again!

    Wonderful movie!

  • What an evil thing to do to someone. Anyone who feels capital punishment is an 'easy' way out needs to watch this film

  • God this is a great performance, but was it worth it? Bjork compared working with director Lars von Trier to 'emotional pornography', ran off the set for three days, and hasn't spoken to him since. Von Trier is famous for a 'bullying' style of direction, but this is something else. I still feel a ton of pain whenever I see this movie, and the worst part is knowing that it's real.

  • The Oscars are a popularity contest and a joke. It has nothing to do with craft but is (mostly) a controlled act in propaganda in perpetuating the fairytale of america empire through culture. Lars has stated distrust and disgust with the "American fairytale" and has been an outcast since.

    This is one of the finest performances male or female in cinema history period. The fact that is was shunned by the Oscars is proof of the ignorance and manipulation of this supposed "ACADEMY" .

  • @ma77hew7720 Yet an English film won best picture last year. Why is that?

  • @hundredand I have a general theory that most if not all our media is designed to not threaten or call bullshit on authority or our capitalist society. Nothing is suppose to break the snow globe their illusions have us under...I think true authentic art and artists threaten this and that is one of the functions of artists that is why a society needs them as much as we need free speech. Corporations control our art and our music and our speech and have controlled our government in the shadows.

  • The Kings Speech is about one of the wealthiest families on top of one of the most blood soaked empires(to that point) and a poor taffy headed plutocrat who has a stutter... Really? In these days of growing global serfdom this is what we look up to? This is a story that gives us enlightenment? Reflects our times? Makes us better? Save us from ourselves... F the Rich!

  • @ma77hew7720 Well said, I totally agree.

  • simplemente algo conmovedor una excelente actriz la pasion se puede sentir a cada minuto que pasa algo triste y que te llega en el fondo

  • After I saw this film I was silent for alomst an hour and couldn't move. It was just sooo... yeah I can't explain it. But after I saw this film I was stunned by Bjork's performance. The Juniper tree was good too. If you all haven't heard the juniper tree was her first film role.

  • this film illustrates the meaning of 'surreal' to me....in the sense that, yes, on the one hand it is fiction (as far as i know it's not a true story), and yet in reality there must have been situations like this- many no doubt, where innocent women with tragic lives were executed in a tragic ending.

    oh yeah, i know Bjork is singing and it's like a bizarre 'musical'...that's the 'artistic' side of it, but still...an audience watching an execution like it was a broadway show- this is real. sad.

  • BEST MOVIE EVER! Like... wow thank GOD BJORK EXISTS (L)

  • I really like this movie. It's basically life in a nutshell, especially the ending.

  • a deep and moving film for people who have depth themselves.

  • i would give her 10 oscars for this..! its incredible... i could cry all the time when i would repeat that vid...best performance i've ever seen..just really touched my heart.. wow..

  • AMERIKA>AMERIKA<AMERIKA.......­.......

  • yes.. the scene, the movie.. all can be depressing for some ones..........but in this part... her voice its just perfect¡¡...an excelent actress.¡¡

  • :(:(

  • love bjork

  • I think I shouldnt have seen it...too much :x

  • love Bjork but I cant stand the that camera movement all the time

  • It's a shame Bjork wasn't oscar-nominated for this role. The Oscar should have gone to her or Ellen Burstyn for RFAD.

    However, Selma's such a stupid bitch!!! Such a fucking idiot!!! She did everything for it to happen, and didn't do anything to save herself and HER SON!!! He wasn't asking for anything!!!

  • bjork is so incredibly raw and real in everything she does... her music is one example, so is this film.

  • @nothingness36

    fair enough -

  • horribly depressing pointless movie - sure, better to die defiant than broken, but I didn't need to get completely bummed out to be aware of it

  • @SupernalOne You didn't understand it don't you??? Well, tastes are tastes, for me, is a masterpiece. Salutations!!

  • @DarkGexx

    greetings - Yes, I see your point, Bjork's character rurns to music to rally her spirit, no matter what atrocities are done to her - & since we all must die anyway, we have only the single choice as to how we face death -

    this makes me think of the final episode of the BBC production Reilly, Ace of Spies - he is shot by the Soviet secret police, but he thinks of a tune he enjoys & hums it with pleasure until the moment he is killed - it is our only victory, but a beautiful one -

  • @SupernalOne It's not pointless, it's a comment on death penalty.

  • 19 persons have no heart...!

  • This makes me BAWWWWW each time...I rarely get so emotional at movies.

  • the script sounds pretty cheesy and narmfull, but it works due too bjorks strong performance and von triers direction, under lesser directors it would have been very stupid

  • i was way too young when i watched this...scarring.

  • GOD BLESS AMERICA AND ALL YOU STAND FOR! A truly monumental performance from every cast member - What blockbuster can compare to the honesty, the heart and soul of every performance? Pure genius, too painful to watch but it cannot fail to move us. A masterpiece

  • @ArtDecoExpress god bless america?, this is a danish movie
