Currently, I think editing on a micro-level has never been better, and editing on a macro-level has never been worse. I leave it to you to decide why this is.

THE FIVE OBSTRUCTIONS - Lars Von Trier

The only Von Trier I’ve ever seen, and this, the third viewing, my first in the cinema.  A great documentary about Von Trier’s mentor Jorgen Leth, whose comment on waiting and observing is now part of the header on this blog.  Excellent.

This trailer is edited in such a way to make the relationship between Von Trier and Leth appear tense and fractured, when in fact it is much more loving and warm.
