    How could a psychiatrist make such mistakes?
  

*by D***U on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 25 July 2014*

This film is not a very great film, even if it is very well done. It is the story of a couple with an important age difference, a professor and a doctorate student with a young child, a toddler actually. One night when they make hectic love in the bathroom, on the washing machine, in the living room, etc, the child wakes up and they do not hear the call in the baby surveillance unit that might not have been on. He gets out of his bed, through the baby gate, sees his parents, goes back to his room, pushes a chair to the table, climbs on the chair, then on the table, then on the window ledge because the window is open. There is snow there because it is snowing. He slips and falls. The film is the story of the mother's subsequent depression treated by her husband who is supposed to be a head shrink.This is the fundamental mistake. A psycho-therapy cannot be performed by a person directly connected to the patient: members of the family and above all sexual partners. He knows that because he tries to cut sex off, but he cannot resist to her neurosis or psychosis that is taking hold of her and forces sex onto him as a poison for herself.The second mistake is to isolate with her in a mountain cabin far from everything and any communication line. He broke there the normal procedure in which the relation doctor-patient has to remain within the frame of a socially situated and defined setting, method, process, with help within easy reach.These two mistakes become dramatic when he discovers the mother had systematically and probably for a long time put the shoes left side right on the feet of the baby. He knew something was wrong because of the autopsy performed on the child that noted a deformity in the feet, which could explain the accident on the window ledge. You add that deformity to the fact that the window was open and rather easily reachable and you have a criminal scenario, maybe unconscious but definitely from a criminal mind. The man finds confirmation of this "torturing" with pictures of the child on which the shoes are always right side left. He finds these pictures in their isolation, and then this guilt gets into her head and she becomes convinced she has to do something to purge it.The doctor and husband should have known that she was to come to this breaking point for various reasons:1- The torturing reveals she wanted to make the child suffer and hence felt guilty about the birth and presence of the child, hence about having sex with the older professor.2- The fact that they were making love when the child "committed suicide" makes her responsible at first ("it's my fault" she says at the beginning) and her guilt getting bigger she will shift this guilt from her to him who forced her to have sex when the child was in danger.3- Her desire to have rough sex, even hurtful sex at the end shows that she considers sex coming from him is and has to be a violent process, that she has been forced into it, that she was raped, and that explained how and why she tortured the child.4- Then she will have to torture him and eventually kill him to alleviate her own guilt, and that will be justice for her since he is the "bastard."The whole story is wrapped up in some kind of myth. The myth of the three beggars, represented by a fox, a deer (that has to be a doe) and a bird of prey. When the three beggars come together someone has to die. She tells him about the myth. And in his own torture (she has screwed up a sharpening stone into his left leg to prevent him from escaping and also with a very obvious sexual innuendo: to sterilize him, to make him impotent without castrating him) he sees visions and he finally sees her lying with the fox, the deer and the bird of prey, and he knows she will kill him. So by some miraculous turn of the screw in the story he recuperates the wrench she had hidden under the cabin (suspend you disbelief one minute) and in spite of her trying to stop him he manages to get the sharpening stone off his leg and he strangles her, then burns the body (to prevent her being scavenged by animals of prey, shall we say). His escape becomes a futuristic vision that has little value: the myth of the resurrection of the hundreds if not thousands of dead bodies buried in the forest and they come from behind him alive and rejuvenated and overtake him and we can then wonder if he is still alive or if he has joined the resuscitated crowd, whose resurrection was called by the killing of the curse of the three beggars.The film though is a tragedy brought by some insidious torturing of a child by his own mother, and then by the absolutely absurd and unprofessional decision of the father and husband to take over the psychological treatment of his wife himself, which is totally forbidden by all codes of behavior and action in the psychiatric profession.Lars von Trier decision to make his characters make these mistakes is of course the fruit of his own twisted mind that tortures his characters probably because he does not have the courage to do it for real in his own life. The film must have a cathartic dimension for him. But the film has not cathartic dimension for the audience because we would never, for those who are doctors in a way or another, do this mistake. It becomes then a warning, a road sign saying: "ROAD TO HELL" and you better know you must not take it.Dr Jacques COULARDEAU

    haunting and beautiful..a film that takes time to fully take its effect...
  

*by M***D on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 11 January 2010*

I watched this film when it first came out in the cinemas with a friend of mine.. and ya know what... i loved it!.. i loved how it pushed boundaries leaving me feeling slightly violated at points (mainly due to the fact that i didnt expect it and hadnt read anything about it before i watched it so was totally unprepared).. i loved how it felt like watching a nightmare unfold on screen with the same confusing, surreal and disturbing personality my own darkest dreams seem to exhibit, with wealths of symbolic meaning and subconsious imagery thrust at you with little care to your feelings. This to me was something to be appreciated rather than enjoyed though so to speak... if you get my meaning?visually its stunning in my opinion and that in itself was enough of a reason for me to love it.. a particular shot of the couple having sex at the base of a tree with various limps/bodies pretruding from the between the roots really stuck in my mind, if youve seen it yourll know what i mean! very artistic.Yes it was a bit up its arse in that it actually took some level of reading after viewing to fully appreciate the symbology and meaning behind various aspects of the film... In regards to this I agree with a previous reviewers comment that "To be understood one has to read about it and analyse the imagery rather than take the work literally"... but this doesnt make me like it less. If anything it makes me like it more. To me it is more a piece of videoart/art house film than a movie to go see on ya friday night out at cineworld lol and thats the perspective from which I've decided to appreciate it.It intruiges, it disturbs and left me with a sense of confusion and dissociation.. nothing quite felt real after I stepped out of the movie theatre.. me and my friend were in a strange state of.. well we couldnt even think of a word to describe it tbh.. for quite a while we were left thinking 'what did we just watch'.. whatever we witnessed was deeply affecting.. but we couldnt quite come to terms with it straight away...I love this feeling of being haunted by a piece of work such as this..yourll either love it... hate it... or simply not understand it or care enough to try to..either way.. i think its worth watching incase you are one of the people that gets something out of it, as if you are one of those people, theres a LOT to get.so yea.. not sure if that makes you wanna give it a try, but i hope it does! lol
