I don’t know if it was just me but after watching all the obstructions I didn’t feel ethically bound to number two or even to the whole film. After reading some other thoughts on the IMDB forum http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0354575/board it seemed to me as if this film was just another piece of fiction that Von Trier and Leth had plotted from the start. The power was never in Von Trier’s hands it was just played out that way to the audience to believe. Don’t get me wrong I enjoyed the concept, it could almost spawn a whole new genre,for instance I’d like to see Spielberg make Jurassic Park without any CGI, or we could even incorporate it into our own pieces this year or will it be hard enough? we will see.
