"The Idiots" is by far the best of Lars Von Triers movies. In a time, where Hollywood spurts out movies like "The Phantom Menace" or "Titanic", we desperately need film makers that remove the distance between the actor and the audience. "The Idiots" does that. The actors are very close to the camera, and as an audience, you really get to see some authenticity in the actor's emotion.
The movie tells you about people, who are under a considerable emotional stress. Love, fear, anger, neurosis, lust and more is displayed for all of us.
I laughed my head off, when I first saw the movie, only to minutes later be forced to question why I was laughing.
Highly recommended.
