Call it a belated treat from Halloween or perhaps an early cinematic appetizer for Thanksgiving, but Lars von Trier is starting off your November with yet another teaser from his forthcoming sexy times epic, “Nymphomaniac.” And if anything, it reveals the dude is going to be throwing every trick he knows into the picture.
This time around, in a very NSFW sequence from “Chapter 5: The Little Organ School,” the filmmaker draws upon the influence of Bach and the musical construct of polyphony, wherein three distinct voices reach harmony. And so against a backdrop of a sonorous organ score, we see Stacy Martin get it on rather explicitly with Shia LaBeouf and Nicolas Bro (we think), a random shot of a cheetah with its prey and some weird black and white stuff. Basically, it’s Lars von Trier and you’re either rolling with it by now or not.
“Nymphomaniac” arrives on Christmas Day in Denmark and Norway, with rumors that the XXX version will hit Cannes.
