Brecht

I love this film and I love that it rooted in theatre. Sometimes I get sick of ultra realism in film, and prefer to see a film that is more or less like a stage production (The Baby of Macon is another example). Very great nod to Brecht with the design, I think that Lars is a very Brechtian film maker in general as I see lots of nods to Brecht in many of his films.
