I loved this movie sooo much. Bjork was absolutely wonderful, and even though I'm a big fan of hers, I am doubly impressed by her work in this film. This is one of those movies that sucks you in and then spits you out. I was crying so hard at the end; I've never before felt such anguish for a fictional character. It was the deepest pain to see the sacrifice that Selma made for her son.
I'm not usually a fan of melodramatic movies, but that's only because other melodramas couldn't get me to relate to them the way that "Dancer in the Dark" did. Once in a blue moon is a movie made that is both stark and fanciful, that tells its story straight into your heart without you even realizing that you've made yourself vulnerable to it. And at the end you find yourself in such emotional disarray that all you can do is walk away from it. This was one of those movies that was so good and so moving that I don't even care to watch it again. The first time watching it left a big enough impression, thank you.
