Sentimentality in Extreme Cinema


The new issue of Jump Cut has an excellent essay on sentimentality in extreme cinema. It discusses two of my favourite contemporary films - Lars von Trier's Breaking the Waves and Takashi Miike's Audition.

Link to the complete issue here. Lots of interesting stuff there.

'Breaking The Waves' is heart-wrenching while 'Audition' is awesome! Both are great!
