what a great interview with the four who wrote the manifesto. ex: must use hand held camera. -no props. http://www.brightlightsfilm.com/28/dogme2.html other than this great Danish special on IFC the latest film that hit me hard is "Death and the Maiden" by Roman Polanski. true human horror

"The Vow Of Chastity" from Dogme *Shooting on location (no imported props or sets) *Sound and image produced together *A handheld camera *Natural light *No optical work or filters *No superficial action (murders, weapons) *No temporal or geographic alienation *No genre films *No signature (director not mentioned)

i just got dancer inthe dark in the mail. is that dogme?

I loved "The Celebration." I LOVED IT. EVERYONE should see it. EVERYONE.

I'm reawakening this thread to re-emphasize my recommendation. If you don't know, it's about a family reunion, and the secret that's revealed at the dinner table. It's about how people deal with the revelation. It's about grief and rage and shame and denial. It's a great movie. Look for it.

This Stuff is so intriguing. I don't see how anyone could not hold these films in the highest regard. The films are so hard to find...at least in my area. Anyone know a good place to buy them? I vant zem!!!!I vant zem!!!( he says with a dainty, slightly homosexual East German accent)!Curious Joe - I'm pretty sure Dancer in the Dark is not a Dogme95 film.
