31 - Lars' Dogma

PICK A FLICK! gives the middle finger to the Establishment and the whole of the Cannes Film Festival as we focus on the unique, hugely divisive and often difficult auteur this week that is Mr. Lars von Trier.Host Philip Sharman (1/3rd of the award-winning Wikishuffle podcast) is joined by friend Ruth Bradley and in her first time podcasting, Jane Douglas-Jones, undertaking the impressive 500 Days of Film project which she discusses at length.Nominated by Jane herself, they first examine von Trier's 2011 film MELANCHOLIA, take a deeper look at the director's work including his controversial Dogme manifesto, and finish up--nominated by The Comic Roast--with EUROPA, a film so hard to find Jane didn't even get to see it!They also take in audience feedback on Lars along the way.
