Danish auteur Lars Von Trier's controversial sequel to Dogville. Grace (Bryce Dallas Howard) and her father (Willem Dafoe) having fled Dogville, arrive in Alabama at the gate of a troubled plantation where the abolition of slavery 70 years earlier has been ignored. Disregarding her father's advice, Grace determines to right this injustice, and stays behind to liberate Manderlay. But in Von Trier's world the road to hell is paved with naļve good intentions, and Grace's determination to bring democracy and equality doesn't allow for the free will the former slaves might choose to exercise, nor for her own uncomfortable erotic fantasies...

Very thought provoking film. Social commentary on how changes made by others with the best interests at heart may not always be in the interests of those they ... read more »
Lars von Trier tries his hand at comedy! There's usually a mischievous twinkle in his eye even when Denmark's most daring director (and its most celebrated neurotic) is tackling such serious subject matter as slavery (Manderlay), hypocrisy and exploitation (Dogville), and gun culture (Dear Wendy - which he wrote). But the sour ironies that underpinned these films are quite different from the playful delight that sparks The Boss of It All. In the opening voice over von Trier promises no... Read more
