Antichrist


Denmark 2009

Details imdb

Seen 7 May 2012

A woman's cry can be deceiving

Ratings
IMDB 6.6/10
Rotten Tomatoes Audience 55% liked it
The film deserves a 7.0/10 just for the fact that Willem Dafoe and Charlotte Gainsbourg are the actors and the director is Lars von Trier. I may not understand the whole subtext but the imagery stays.





My impressions:

It started with grief
Over the loss of a loved one

Can we ever overcome that feeling
Guilt, responsibility
Knowing that the past can't be turned back
What happened, did happen
As it was meant to be

We decide to find the peace within

But the mind and heart react differently
The mind plays tricks
The heart feels
Or is it the truth
That had been hidden all this time
Taking the opportunity
To rear its head
Beautiful or otherwise
