Review

Melancholia (2011) is the newest film from Danish provocateur Lars von Trier, who bills it as “a beautiful movie about the end of the world.” Kirsten Dunst stars as Justine, a bride celebrating her wedding to Michael (Alexander Skarsgard) at the palatial country estate of her sister Claire (Charlotte Gainsbourg) and brother-in-law John (Kiefer Sutherland).  As the supposedly happy day wears on, it becomes clear that Justine suffers from a crippling depression that is tearing the family apart. Meanwhile, a mysterious red star is growing brighter and brighter in the sky, and as everyone realizes the scope of their impending doom, the laws of psychology and physics begin to bend under its fearsome force.

Fresh off of her nude debut in All Good Things (2010), Kirsten flashes full frontal for a faraway scene lying nude on a rock, and bares her surprisingly full moons bending over a bathtub. It’s the end of the world as we know it- but as long as Kirsten’s naked, Mr. Skin feels fine.
