Review of Nymphomaniac: Vol. II (2013) by Ryanofireland — 30 Mar 2014
This movie is the perfect beginning to an end for Von Trier's "Trilogy of Depression". It's beautifully filmed and the story of Joe (Gainsbourg) is enthralling and tragic at the same time. The only part of the film that I had a problem with was the juxtaposition of Joe's story with Seligman's (Skarsgard) stories and analogies to any and all topics.
Yes I understand that these topics that he brings up do connect and reflect the story that Joe tells and yes it is somewhat interesting at first, but then it gets old FAST. I could care less about dessert forks or fly fishing flys I just want to see Joe's story all the way through with no interruption.
