Nymphomaniac Volumes I & II Directors Cut [DVD]

Product Information

Lars von Trier at gala screening of complete Nymph()maniac Director's Cut - Ekstra Bladet, September 10 2014".

A "secret" advance screening of Volume I occurred at the Sundance Film Festival on 21 January 2014, at the Egyptian Theater with tickets distributed bearing the film title "Film X" amidst rumors the film could either be von Trier's film, or Wes Anderson's The Grand Budapest Hotel. Gainsbourg and Martin further revealed that prosthetic vaginas and closed sets were used during filming. This is a superbly made movie, directed by Lars von Trier (whose earlier work includes “Melancholia” and “Antichrist”), and who is known for making explicit and artistic films. A conversation about morphine dosing between Young Joe and her dying father’s physician was sad and moving.This was followed by the release of a picture of Trier himself with duct tape covering his mouth, accompanied by a press release explaining the official launch of the film's campaign. He ended his review with hailing the film, saying "Lars von Trier ends up hitting the G-spot of avant-garde filmmaking with a movie only he could ever make, and gives the open-minded members of the audience one of the most powerful and sensational experiences ever seen in arts.

The world premiere of the uncut Volume I occurred on 16 February 2014 at the 64th Berlin International Film Festival, [8] while the uncut Volume II premiered at the 71st Venice International Film Festival. Each appetizer represented each of the eight chapters of Nymphomaniac and the first one, entitled "The Compleat Angler", appeared on 28 June 2013, the last Friday of the month—this pattern would be followed for the monthly release of the subsequent clips. She picks the latter and, after receiving an especially brutal beating from K with a cat o' nine tails that allows her to climax again, takes a path of loneliness away from her one and only possibility of a normal life. To produce scenes of simulated sex, von Trier used digital compositing to superimpose the genitals of pornographic film actors onto the bodies of the film's actors. The Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell rom-com’s unlikely journey to blockbusterdom benefitted from a singular confluence of factors.

As the story continues, and as Joe steals from Seligman's - and Von Trier's - body of work (there is a direct and very amusing reference to both ANTI-CHRIST and MELANCHOLIA) Joe and Seligman subconsciously collude to bring about the climax of the final chapter, THE GUN.

Throughout the story he parallels much of what she has experienced with various methods of the sport.
