Images of Liberationultimately stands as Lars von Trier's first feature-length film, even though it only runs about an hour. As such, it's worth noting, even though it was his first movie, was made when he was only about 25 years old, and was a student film (though it received a limited theatrical release in Denmark).

It's a shame The Boss of It All is a little boring to watch, because the premise and the film's visual style both have so much promise. Broadly speaking, it's a comedy about an IT company that hires an actor to be their company’s president for an important business deal. Visually, it's filmed with a computer programthat chooses the framing, leading...
The Element of Crime is certainly an improvement on von Trier's 1982 student film/feature debut, Images of Liberation. This one at least has some of the style his later films would have, showing that his trademarks were well on their way to becoming well-defined and famous/notorious. It's a disturbing mystery film about a serial killer that aims to...
Like The Boss of It All, Epidemic is a darkly comedic/satirical movie that has a great concept, but somewhat lackluster execution. It follows a pair of screenwriters who work together to make a screenplay about a global epidemic, with the two getting so invested in their work that they don't notice a real viral outbreak happening around them. RELAT...
Manderlay is a sort-of sequel to a noticeably better Lars von Trier movie that came out in 2003 (more on that later). Some of the cast carries over, but not all, which makes it feel a little disconnected and odd, and though some of the character names are familiar, the events of the last film don't have a huge impact on Manderlay. The film stars Br...
Though The Idiotswasn't von Trier's first challenging or alarming film, it arguably stands as his first very controversial one. Part of that controversy comes from the premises itself, as it follows a group of adults who intentionally behave anti-socially, clashing with the world they live in under the pretense of wanting to find their "inner idiot...
Unsurprisingly, Nymphomaniac: Vol. II is the second half of the overall story that began with Nymphomaniac Vol. 1. All up, these two volumes tell a story that's approximately four hours long, centering on a woman named Joe, who's lived her whole life with an addiction to sex.

The first volume of Nymphomaniac is similar to the second, but is a little stronger overall. It can be shocking and confronting for sure, but the alarming material feels a little more justified, or otherwise is jarring in a "good" or effective way, rather than just seeming a little cheap, like the ending of Vol. II, which somewhat sours what came b...
It's impressive enough that The Kingdom: Exodusexists, and the fact it ever came to fruition makes it a worthy addition to Lars von Trier's body of work. It's the third and final installment of a miniseries trilogy that began way back in 1994, and continues the story the best it can, despite numerous cast members from the first two installments hav...
Even thoughMedeais defined as a TV movie, it's easily the most cinematic feature film he made before the 1990s. As such, it's arguably his first great (or close to great) film, and marks a point in the overall von Trier ranking where his ambitious ideas start to become fully realized into very compelling - though still challenging - movies.
