Anti

ANTICHRIST-2009-This is more pretentious, self indulging nonsense from Lars Von Trier. You can tell right away by the “prologue” where a couple (Wilhem Defoe and Charlotte Gainsbourg) have sex in slow motion while opera plays. While this is going on their infant son gets out of his crib and falls out a window to his death. The rest of the story (done in chapters) follows the couple as they try and come to grips with their loss. They go to a secluded cabin the the woods but things don't get any better. 

 As usual Von Trier gets actors to embarrass themselves by saying and doing stupid things, exposing their bodies and generally acting idiotic to satisfy his own warped ego mainly fueled by critics who heap inexhaustible praise on this kind of garbage. 

Von Trier doesn't need a movie camera he needs a psychiatrist. There is a dedication to Andrei Tarkovsky at the end.
