Much like Terrence Malick’s The Tree of Life earlier this year, Lars von Trier’s Melancholia is a bit of a divisive film. There’ll be plenty of people (myself included) who absolutely love it, but I’ve no doubt that many people won’t really take to it. I highly recommend that you go and search it out [...]
To coincide nicely with Jamie’s great review of Lars von Trier’s new movie, Melancholia, we have the UK premiere footage and interviews which took place on Wednesday evening at the Curzon in London. Two of the stars of the film were present in the form of John Hurt and Kirsten Dunst who both spoke very [...]
Lars von Trier is the type of director who’s not scared of polarising audiences. Not content with making straightforward films, he’s instead built up a career by following the more controversial route, exploring topics that are puzzling, difficult, or both – not concerning himself with the dozens of cinemagoers he may be excluding in the process. Melancholia, the Danish auteur’s [...]
A few hours separate us here in the UK from the end of the world according to Lars Von Trier so let’s greet the cataclysm with some rather lovely looking character banners and a new clip from the film, shall we? The main players in this doomsday scenario are all present and correct, each facing [...]
We have until the 30th of September to prepare ourselves for Lars Von Trier’s latest to hit UK cinemas and if you were in any doubt as to what Melancholia was about here’s a new trailer to lay bare the beginning of the end.

If the end of the world has you picturing an Emmerichian CG whirlwind ripping through prominent landmarks (while avoiding family pets naturally) then you’re in for a bit of a shock as Lars Von Trier introduces a new planet into our orbit and watches the people beneath emotioanlly crumble until they disappear up their own [...]
A few days ago we ran a short piece on the Polish poster for the beautiful end of the world epic from Lars Von Trier, Melancholia. Today we have more from the film, again from Poland as one of the effects houses working on the film have placed a show reel online. When Von Trier [...]
Few trailers have impressed me as much as the recent outing for Lars Von Trier’s end o’the world film Melancholia, like the trailer for Terrence Malick’s The Tree of Life this was so much more than quips and big blossoming explosions and offered us a rich, intriguing and doomed world. The poster that will be [...]
The first poster for Lars Von Trier’s Melancholia has just been unveiled on the film’s new official website. It’s a little on the formal side of minimalist design but like all good design it fits perfectly with the mood evoked by the stunning trailer released a few weeks ago. If you’ve not seen that already [...]

At the end of July last year Lars Von Trier finally gave us a hint of what to expect when we sit down to watch his new film Melancholia, and a happy ending was obviously not on the cards. But nothing he said, nor anything we knew about this film prepared me for the power [...]
