Lars von Treir's "Medea"?
Edited on Fri Mar-30-07 09:45 PM by darkstar
Well wow. Sometimes LVT goes over my head, but his range is pretty amazing. This was a blurry, grainy, heavenly, haunting, rainy, wrenching retelling of the Jason and Medea story. Man. Savage beauty.

Kind of a spoiler in warning below.
































Warning: Very tough ending for parents.

2. Just so you know, anyone on a 20" screen can see your spoiler without scrolling.
Haha. Doesn't bother me though.

I'll have to check it out, I love von Trier's work.
