Melancholia (2011)

MOVIEHUMPERS

Our month’s theme and our year’s theme have crossed over. You could call it “LARS VON TRIER’S BULLSHIT TOMORROW” but it may not be bullshit for Lars or the character of Justine so much as cathartic. Imagine being overwhelmed with crippling depression and then you discover a rogue planet is hurtling towards Earth. Guys who get their astronomy news from Joe Rogan aren’t too worried about it but you know exactly what’s going to happen. The end of the world. The world is shitting itself and you’re basking peacefully in the sun’s reflection off of the planetoid Melancholia as it looms towards Earth. Yes, we are discussing von Trier’s 2011 examination of extreme depression in “MELANCHOLIA” starring Kirsten Dunst and Charlotte Gainsbourg. Personally I would spend all of that time collecting as many Beanie Babies as I can. It’s a passion of mine and I’d rather go out doing what I love the most. I just hope the stores will be open until the very end. I want my last moments to be me handing my credit card to a cashier for a tie-dye Iggy Iguana. Signing that receipt right as I’m misted into nothing. I may need to borrow some money though.
