Product Description

A group of perfectly intelligent young people decide to react to society's cult of an aimless, non-creative and non-responsible form of intelligence by living together in a community of "idiots". Their main activity becomes going out into the world of "normal" people and pretending to be mentally retarded. They take advantage of this situation to create anarchy everywhere they go and try by every possible means to make people annoyed, disturbed, miserable, ridiculous, angered, and shocked. The films start as they recruit a new lost soul and introduced her to their megalomaniac leader.

A boundry breaker.......2006-04-11

This as the first Dogme95 Film I had ever seen. I knew nothing of the concept of what the Dogme95 films were all about. All I can say is what an amazing ride. This film is brilliant as far as im concerned.

c'mon....it's not THAT bad.......2005-11-04

my department ordered this version of THE IDIOTS for a class....and yes, i panicked when i first saw the japanese subtitles....but with a little playing with my languages button, i got english titles no problem.

it's true that most of the naughtiest bits are gone here....depending on where you sit, that can ruin the whole thing....but unless you're using a multiformat DVD and can play aussie discs, this is really your only option to have von Trier's Dogma95 film on disc. By no means is it a perfect version of the film, but it's just about the only one available to us non-danes....and the film itself is fascinating.

It's not Japanese !!.......2005-07-21

I am Japanese, so I got this DVD.
But It was Chinese subtitles, it wasn't Japanese at all.

So only DANISH and CHINESE can enjoy this DVD.
Be careful!

Japanese/Danish version.......2005-06-20

This version of "Idiots" notably differs from descriptions of the movie offered elsewhere. I suspect it has been heavily cut to something like a PG13 version for the Japanese market.

I still want to see it (but with ENGLISH subtitles, please).......2005-05-05

UNLESS YOU SPEAK DANISH OR JAPANESE, DO NOT ORDER THIS VERSION.

This dvd is in DANISH with JAPANESE SUBTITLES.

Product Description

Australia released, PAL/Region 4 DVD: it WILL NOT play on standard US DVD player. You need multi-region PAL/NTSC DVD player to view it in USA/Canada. Languages: o English (subtitles) o Danish (Mono) Synopsis: Lars von Trier wrote (in four days) and directed this Danish comedy-drama about a group of Copenhagen eccentrics who find a therapeutic release and confront apathy via unacceptable, idiotic behavior which they call "spazzing." Stoffer (Jens Albinus) is supposed to be selling his uncle's house but instead it becomes the focal point for geeky group activities. Restaurant patrons are disturbed by the group's mischief, but single diner Karen (Bodil Jorgensen) develops an appreciation of their antics. Stoffer, at his birthday party, wishes for a "gangbang," and both clothes and inhibitions are soon discarded. But when Stoffer calls for the group members to let idiocy invade their personal daily lives, only Karen takes up the challenge. Shown in competition at the 1998 Cannes Film Festival. Special Features: o Documentary o Filmographies o Interactive Menu o Scene Access o Trailer(s)

A Beautiful, Poignant Experience in Holistic Psychotherapy.......2005-09-12

This film profoundly touched me. It can only be described as a beautiful, tragic creation by a young and dynamic filmmaker, Lars von Trier. Americans raised in the 70's will readily relate to the experiential, therapeutic approach offered by the character of the young analyst, Stoffer, in this film. His clients are not "retards" at all, but those engaged in the most difficult psychotherapy: self-analysis. They evoke so much of the activist, transference therapy of the good 'ole days of California-style "Psychology Today"-era psychotherapy that I had a tear in my eye during much of this film. The filmmaker obviously intended as much: note the beautiful, lilting piece by Camille Saint Saens that punctuates the melancholy of the disbanded group of brilliant young psychologists, all truly the children of the great Viennese himself. And, true, those who are familiar with my reviews here will note that I am of course remembering Stoffer in my own way, in my father's own experiments in the 1970's "youth PARC" movement for the developmentally-disabled on the East Coast of the US. There was so much in Stoffer that reminded me of some of my fondest memories of my father and the Berkeley psychotherapist Alan Weinstock who, perhaps some one hundred years from now, people will finally be just beginning to comprehend. . .Much like this beautiful, haunting synaesthesia in experiential mental retardation itself.

Great fun for the whole family.......2005-12-12

I saw this show live in NYC with my kids. We were very impressed, so when the DVD came out I got it straight away.

It's a juggling show - three rather odd guys juggle all kinds of things. Some of those things are actually flaming! And there is one very neat trick that one of these guys does with his feet, but you need to see it to believe it.
It is absolutely dazzling.
