Protagonist's Darkness

I don't like this movie
and even hate it a bit . The
only scene in the film that I want to cry is when the
lead actor Björk says "I love you"
I don't think the hero is great
I think she's selfish
like the lawyer's words
"the defendant" Not only did she commit the most ruthless murder,
but she was essentially a selfish person who
only had pity on herself"
I even thought she was a little morbid,
she thought she was strong enough, but wanted others from time to time
I hate people like this for
her I have no sympathy for
such a heroine I don't feel cruel to such a woman
she has
sons, friends, people who love themselves, caring colleagues and even a Exotic friendliness
is just her own refusal to deal with it herself
Maximize the sadness of her son's eyes widen
this pathetic man
makes me feel tired
This is not the last song, for her son the world lights up
but for her son Does the world really light up? Some people say that


without Bjork's song, "Dancer in the Darkness" is worthless

    From the time the Selma money was stolen and started crying, crying until the end of the credits... (Khan)

    Everything happened after killing Bill... I don't understand the necessity of a large song and dance scene, simplifying (or even completely deleting) the abrupt song and dance part has almost no impact on the film, and a few scenes are quite heavy and contradictory singing and dancing On the contrary, the drama dilutes the emotions that have been brewing from beginning to end. Although there can be various explanations to pull it out of the main plot, this approach is still puzzling. Of course, similar singing and dancing tragedies are not without precedent, beautiful and kind The drama where the protagonist is in deep trouble is not the only one. However, even if the classic Hollywood musical has created many difficulties for the protagonist, it is always a candy cannonball wrapped in a happy ending, and von Trier created this film. Obviously not here. Acting in musicals is the protagonist's hobby and spiritual sustenance. That's right. It's understandable to keep Bjork's normal singing and dancing parts intact. If we say that the singing and dancing in the factory can still be regarded as a magic pen to entertain oneself and others , then the singing and dancing in the court is really out of line with the style of the whole film, and because of this, it is incredible to see comments like "moving to the death".

Dancer in the Dark quotes

  • Norman: She said Communism was - better for human beings.

    District Attorney: She had nothing but contempt for our great country and it's principals.

    Norman: Apart from it's musicals! She said the American one - the American ones were better.

    District Attorney: So, the defendant preferred Hollywood to Vladivostok.

  • District Attorney: If this relationship was made up by the defendant, then, can you think of any way she might have come to know your name?

    Oldrich Novy: I was once well known in Czechoslovakia, because of my profession.

    District Attorney: Yes, Mr. Oldrich Novy, what is your profession? Maybe that can give us a clue to why, why this somewhat romantic, certainly Communistic, woman who worships Fred Astaire, but not his country, why she might have lied and misused your name - make everybody think that all the money was spent on a poor father and not on her own vanity. What is it that you do?

    Oldrich Novy: I was an actor. I made films - they were musicals.
