Lars Von Trier is a genius. Every film he makes is so honest and powerful.
If you asked an 18-year-old what they want to do with their life, and the options are 'Transformers' or Lars von Trier, he's probably shipping out for 'Transformers.' If you ask a 26-year-old what he wants to do, 'Transformers' or Lars von Trier, he'd probably pick Lars von Trier. So, my sensibilities are changing as I change.
I don't think that this movie is the kind of movie that a magazine like In Touch even cares about, if you know what I mean. It's a Lars von Trier film. They care about Moneyball, not Melancholia. They care about what I wear to Melancholia premieres; they don't really care about a Lars von Trier film.
If people remember me for any scene in a Lars von Trier film, I'm extremely honoured and forever grateful.
I think you either get along with Lars [von Trier] or you really don't and I really got along with him. I wasn't scared because I talked to Bryce Dallas Howard about Lars.
I would amputate my toes to work with Lars von Trier again.
Lars von Trier is a very good storyteller. He's like an H. C. Andersen for adults.
Lars von Trier is not not somebody who is known for conducting a normal press conference ever!
I got used to [ Lars Von Trier] doing the narration for 'Dogville' and 'Manderley.' And I said to him I do these narrations for you but you never put me in a film! So he called my bluff and put me in 'Melancholia' and I was thrilled about that.
I mean look at Antichrist. He's not making films to be liked by everyone, so why is this so surprising coming from Lars von Trier?
I love working with Lars [von Trier]! I've worked with him three times. I did the narration of Dogville and Manderlay.
Lars von Trier, Wim Wenders, Werner Herzog: They all write, which is much better because it's their baby, and they know what they want.
I love Lars von Trier and Michael Haneke, but if I'm not in the right frame of mind to watch their work, I feel upset after watching it.
Lars von Trier makes funny, radical movies, some packing power. But, he's not a provocateur. He's making adult movies for an adult audience. Pasolini, too. Fassbinder, too.
I loved working with [ Lars Von Trier], but I've done two films before, so I was quite used to him.He's a man of incredible moods of course, but he's also a hugely perceptive man, and there's no getting away from that. And he's able to put that perception into something like film, so we're very lucky.
The Danish filmmakers are a unique breed of filmmakers, with the Dogme films and Lars von Trier.
I've worked with Lars von Trier on many films, and there's always a female character that's like an open wound - everything just pours out of this person.
