    • 'Dancer in the Dark' (2000) Margaret Pomeranz and David Stratton are two film critics who were essentially Australia's answer to Siskel & Ebert. The duo's review of Dancer in the Dark reflects the divisive quality of Lars von Trier's work better than anything else, given that David (Australia treats them on a first-name basis) hated the 2000 film and gave it a rare zero-star rating, yet Margaret was thrilled by it and gave it a perfect score of five out of five stars.
    • 'Europa' (1991) Few Lars von Trier movies can be described as fast-paced or belonging within the thriller genre, which makes his 1991 film Europa stand out.
    • 'The Five Obstructions' (2003) The same year that Dogville came out, von Trier also co-directed - with Jørgen Leth - one of the most creative documentaries of its decade.
    • 'Melancholia' (2011) Speaking of sad, emotionally heavy movies, Melancholia isn't afraid to let viewers know they'll be in for something miserable, thanks to that title alone.
    • Dogville (2003) “For passion, originality, and sustained chutzpah,” wrote The Village Voice’s J. Hoberman in an overwhelmingly positive review, “this austere allegory of failed Christian charity and Old Testament payback is von Trier’s strongest movie–a masterpiece, in fact.”
    • The Idiots (1998) Von Trier’s first film made in complete compliant with the Dogme 95 Manifesto, The Idiots isn’t an easy viewing experience and is the kind of polarizing project that his fans admire while his detractors utterly abhor.
    • The Boss of It All (2006) While even von Trier’s most dirge-like films offer moments of comical interlude, 2006’s The Boss of It All is the only film thus far in his canon that’s an across-the-board comedy, though of course of the pitch dark and satiric variety.
    • Europa (1991) The very presence of actor Eddie Constantine in Europa invokes his iconic role of Lemmy Caution from Jean-Luc Godard’s 1965 sci-fi classic Alphaville, and it’s no coincidence.
  4. TV Movie 84 Metascore. Medea is in Corinth with Jason and their two young sons. King Kreon wants to reward Jason for his exploits: he gives the hand of his daughter, Glauce, to Jason as well as the promise of the throne. In exchange, Medea and the boys are to be banished.
