...find their way into the 100 minutes that comprise it. Instead, Von Trier seems satisfied with a set of auteuristic half-measures intended to flummox or thwart critical impingement. When Willem Dafoe’s unnamed therapist-husband character exclaims toward the end of his wife’s treatment, “You don’t have to understand me, just trust me!” it may as well be Von Trier’s claim for the entire film.

...Merkel has said that health-care reform will be one of her new government's top priorities. Although medical treatment in Germany is among the best in the world, the country's health-care system faces an uncertain future due to exploding costs, a rapidly aging population and a burdensome bureaucracy. About 90% of Germany's 82 million people are covered by the country's public health insurance companies, which are currently funded by contributions from employers and employees. Merkel's reform plan is expected to include a freeze on employer contributions - shifting the burden to individuals - and the creation...
