Lars von Trier returns to Cannes Film Festival 7 years after Hitler joke
Lars von Trier's long banishment from the Cannes Film Festival - following his shocking comments about Hitler and the Nazis in 2011 - may soon be over, Cannes artistic director Thierry Fremaux suggested Tuesday.
Director Lars von Trier will return to Cannes for a 7 year ban.
.Added to the official competiton are Knife + Heart from Yann Gonzalez and starring Vanessa Paradis, Akya by Kazak director Sergey Dvortsevoy, and The Wild Pear Tree by former Palme victor (and a noted absence from the first lineup announcement) Nuri Bilge Ceylan. Jack's victims are played by Uma Thurman, Siobhan Fallon Hogan, Sofie Gråbøl, and Riley Keough. Von Trier hasn't been seen on the Croisette in seven years, since he astonished reporters at his "Melancholia" press conference by saying that Hitler did "some things wrong" but that he could "sympathize with him". Björk is one of three women to get Cannes' best actress nod for a von Trier film, with Gainsbourg winning for Antichrist in 2009 and Kirsten Dunst for Melancholia in 2011. But then I found out I was actually a Nazi.
