Introduction

1001 movies you must see before you die. Must I? Let's see.

My name is Dagmar and I am from Czech Republic. I have a bachelor's degree in screenwriting. I study movies. I watch movies. I write about movies. I kind of mention movies a lot. I even cross stitch things I like in movies. My views on cinema could be described as peculiar. My views on the "1001 movies" list as complicated. It happens a lot that I get the feeling it wasn't that necessary to see some particular movies. Sometimes I'm really grateful I saw them. And there are also times when I don't watch any new movies for six months straight. And they keep adding new movies every damn year so I might have to never die to watch them all.

What's the score right now?
606/1245 - That's 639 left to see.
I started this experiment on July 3rd 2009 and the latest update was made on April 19th 2023.

The Idiots (1998)

Idioterne
Denmark/France/Netherlands/Italywritten and directed by: Lars von Trier
starring: Bodil Jørgensen, Jens Albinus, Anne Louise Hassing
seen: 25th November, 2008; comment: 17th September, 2018

Ok, Lars himself might have gotten mad from his inner demons (oh my god, he's already sixty two years old?!) which in turn might lead one to take a second look at his work, but I still consider "Idioterne" perfect. With one teeny tiny exception, because I could do without the framing of the "participants" being interviewed in front of the camera. Nonetheless, as of today, I would say that it is artistically the most convincing/the most articulate film of the nineties.
