Two Films Worth Your While

These are based on the Stateside release, as I believe the European release of Antichrist is already out on DVD.

A SERIOUS MAN

The epic Coen Brothers (creators of NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN, BURN AFTER READING, FARGO and more) direct their next irreverent comedy, this time featuring a down-on-his-luck professor desperate for a little help or a lucky break. Michael Stuhlbarg plays Larry Gopnik who seeks advice from three rabbis after his wife announces a divorce, his unemployed brother won’t get off the couch and his children run wild at home and school.

ANTICHRIST

Legendary Danish director and Academy Award® nominee Lars von Trier (DANCER IN THE DARK , DOGVILLE, BREAKING THE WAVES) calls his latest piece “a very dark dream.” ANTICHRIST took home a nomination for Cannes’ Golden Palm and won lead, Charlotte Gainsbourg, the award for best actress. After the tragic death of their son, a struggling couple (Gainsbourg and two-time Academy Award® nominee Willem Dafoe) retreat to their cabin in the forest. While unsuccessfully attempting to cope with their grief and guilt, the couple travels into horrifying territory in this graphic, theological horror oeuvre of which Roger Ebert says “It will remain in my mind. Von Trier has reached me and shaken me.”
