Sydney's Chauvel Cinema are screening Lars von Trier's controversial film ANTICHRIST, with the extended season commencing today (31.12.09).Antichrist is a horror film ... about a couple who, after the death of their child, retreat to a cabin in the woods where they encounter strange and terrifying occurrences. The film stars only two actors, Charlotte Gainsbourg and Willem Dafoe. The narrative is made up of a prologue, four chapters, and an epilogue.
Since premiering at Cannes, where Gainsbourg won the festival's award for Best Actress, the film has come under attack for what some critics view as misogny, as well as for featuring explicit sexual violence; at the same time many critics have also praised the film for its visuals and serious approach.
(From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.)
'I absolutely was on the edge of my seat for the whole of this film. I was incredibly moved by it. I think she (Charlotte Gainsbourg) is quite wonderful.'
