That's the great thing about entering a convent: There are things that you simply can't do, so you don't have to worry about them.
From Lars von Trier
If you want to provoke, you should provoke someone who is stronger than you, otherwise you are misusing your power.
Only a fool does not fear actors, but you can't beat them, and if you can't beat them, join them, as they say. As I've got older I've become very interested in that part of the work.
I would say that I am a poor Christian; I'm not a believer. It was this idea very early in my life that life on Earth, nature or man could not be a creation of a merciful God.
Actors need bricks to play with, and in fact we rejected all the improvised fragments we had made without a plan. Improvisation without a plan is like tennis without tennis balls.
I'm having a vacation, and it's so beautiful, and maybe I'll never get another film idea in my life.
I know that I cannot be with a person for three hours without saying at least ten things that would kill me.
When I was in film school, it was said that all good films were characterised by some form of humour.
You could say that when you introduce humour to your work, you also step back a little from it. You create a distance.
I grew up in a culturally radical home, where strong emotions were forbidden.
