Quote from: lilith2u on March 11, 2012, 06:30 amWatch all or Lars Von Trier's movies while your at it :PYes absolutely, some people have been saying that Lars von Trier's movie Dogville is anti-american, and I think that puts off a lot of people from watching it that would otherwise enjoy it.I assure you, you couldn't get more pro-American than myself, this is flat out wrong.If your ideal of America is 'The American Dream' where everybody automagically becomes rich and successful, the land of the beautiful and the good, then yes, Dogville must be anti-American. But then you're being anti-reality and pro-fairytale, I'm not sure I'd think your opinions have any more weight than a feather.If your ideal of America is that of a place where hard nosed meritocracy is the order of the day, where individual responsibility is sacrosanct i.e. Natural Law then Dogville must be radical pro-American propaganda.It is ironic that some left wing commentators have embraced Dogville, because I can't think of a more devastating critique of the concepts of fairness and equality.Anyway, thread derailed a bit, sorry folks.
