First hour of MELANCHOLIA was superb.

Well-acted, very human characters (it amazes me how well von Trier can represent real human interaction and happiness, considering he has probably never engaged in such). Really wish I could stay for the rest, but it opens in a couple weeks and the new Bella Tarr (THE TURIN HORSE) is at 11, and if the first fifteen of that don’t catch my fancy, WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT KEVIN at 11:30.

This is a post that is only interesting to me.

For posterity!
