I personally didn´t like Nymphomaniac that much. Or Nymp()maniac or whatever. Some of the dialogue seemed forced / unnatural, and some of it seemed to be no more than a means to state the director´s opinion on a variety of matters in a not so subtle way. There´s some humour (like the spoons), and the story of Joe is somewhat interesting, and comes full circle in a nice way, and it would have been an ok film if it were left at that, but the director felt the need to end the film in a very inappropriate way. Maybe it was his way of giving his publishers the finger, I don´t know. I think the problem lies mainly with the "interview" segments.. I feel he could have left those out completely. I´m not at all a Lars von Trier fan or expert by any means, this is only the 2nd film I´ve seen of him, but I loved Melancholia whereas this film doesn´t do much for me.
Anyway, I´ll start a films of 2013 thread later, unless someone wants to beat me to it. I´ve seen around 130 films in a cinema last year, so I´ll have a big list. Some highly recommended films I´ll quickly mention: Frozen, Gravity, Thor: the dark world, La grand belleza, Ginger & Rosa, Halley, No, Trance, Stories we tell, Silver linings playbook and Blue Jasmin. But I´ve seen plenty films last year, a lot of them good, and I intend to post one-word reviews of them all
