DP/30: Melancholia, actor Kirsten Dunst

[@luanamonteiro2817]

Kirsten in Melancholia: one of the best performances of all time!!

[@JoshuaR7594]

Did the film get any Oscar nominations/wins? It deserves something!!!

[@TheOblivionCK]

+Joshua Ragland Nope, the academy will not recognize art cinema. The best actress award went to fucking Sandra Bullock for The Blind Side that year...what the flying fuck. Fuck the Oscars.

[@JoshuaR7594]

Chris Kostaras I love Sandra Bullock and The Blind Side, but I feel like Kirsten should've gotten Best Actress nomination.

[@TheOblivionCK]

Joshua Ragland Well i think she should have won best actress like she did at Cannes

[@JoshuaR7594]

Chris Kostaras I love Kirsten. She's one of my favorite actresses. I need to check out Cannes if she won an Oscar for it. :)

[@XieYali]

I'm so glad she took this role. She deserved a good role like this.

[@Redboykk]

Yoooo you still here

[@theundergradanalysis]

I liked how graciously she took being complimented on her looks.

[@drmedwuast]

Well to be fair, the complimenting was very gracious too

[@ilovetati91]

@@drmedwuast she's gorgeous

[@zasddsaf]

Just finished Melancholia. She was amazing and so was Charlotte. Thank you Lars for making another spectacular film.

Kirsten is so modest. She knocked it out of the park with Melancholia. Seven months after seeing the movie and I am still romanticizing the movie within my own life. Ooo and her husky voice at the end of the movie is so sultry. It's like warm molasses :)

[@ronaldweasley2400]

she's underrated, imo.

[@leviathandiabolo6296]

Stick to Hermione, Ron. OR I'm gonna put some dirt in your eye.

[@drmedwuast]

Yeah she’s only one of the most successful actresses of all time. Tragic.

[@lambsandswans]

She is !!

[@mv848]

In my book she is quite literally... ...well in top 7 of *all time* . Do not care if others rate her lower... She is a genius.

[@HerEvilTwin]

@@drmedwuastvery successful yes, but she still isn’t given the props she really deserves. There are many successful actors but Kirsten is really a step beyond that

[@whatstwelveohnine]

She's so attractive. Why doesn't everyone have a crush on her

[@andreias5564]

because she is not sexy or wrong. Scarlet Johanson is the bad sexy thing.

[@omongeexpressionista5586]

@@andreias5564 i think she was sexy in Virgin Suicides

[@samuelbroudy9420]

Not sexy? Preposterous! And crush is too weak. Nothing less than love will do.

[@SuperGenerations]

Kirsten Dunst is my favorite actress by far, she's such a humble, caring and respectful person. A lot of celebrities tend to only care about themselves in the end but Kirsten is not like that at all. I would do anything to meet her one day!

[@jerrybaba2]

Melancholia got me through one of my most devastating times. I needed to find a place to stay for 2 years while my building was renovated, each place that was suggested was extremely dangerous and frightening, at the same time I had come to grips with the possibility of cataclysmic disasters due to climate change. Usually, I would meditate, but because I was looking for a new home and packing, etc., I could not find a peaceful place for that. It put me into a state of shock wherein there was a major shut down of my spirit. Once located in a grand apartment, quite safe, and very posh and beautiful, I could relax, but I could not escape the original shock. While watching Melancholia so many times, about 9 or twelve, slowly melted my being, that had become a block of ice or a huge iceberg. It had Kirstin giving herself over to calamity as if it were an aggressive lover and simply submitting to it. It had Gainsborough trying to reconcile impending disaster with a flippant husband and a potentially frightened child, not to mention a sister who seemed to be unstable. Every day, watching these people watch as the cosmos itself threatened all with annihilation was so very cathartic that it pulled me through just like meditation used to. The fights and loss of temper were real and also released pent-up feelings as well. By the time the pandemic hit, I was stoic, unmoved, fearless, and ready to help others. This is the first time I shared this with anyone.

[@RemAtmos]

It made you a stronger version of yourself. Thanks for sharing man

[@michaeld.williamsiii9026]

Just finish watching for like, the fourth time glad to have this movie in my collection. Kirsten Dunst is again at her finest here.🌙🎬✨

[@erikbateson]

She's smart and lovely. An all-around adorable person.

Great actress in a great film

Ms Dunst has a great personality and a winning smile. She's at the top of her game xx

[@lambsandswans]

She’s one of the best actress of all time, I really don’t understand why she’s underrated

[@ricardocostagomes4276]

When Kirsten puts on a serious face, she has the most profound eyes I ever laid eyes on. And, by the way, Melancholia is my favourite movie.

[@lorriesardinia5302]

What a great interview. She was so honest about meeting famous people and how some, are a bummer. LOL..

[@TheeOneWhoTalks]

Oh my god, she's so awesome, for a person who was a child actress she seems so down to earth. I love her, I need to go back and watch Virgin Suicides right now.

[@lewisfilms]

Lars von Trier is a brilliant filmmaker. So happy that someone as eccentric as him is making films on a regular basis.

[@sharrow2]

I've never felt as moved by a film as I was by this one and Kirsten has a lot to answer for in that!

[@henryhale5379]

She’s so fantastic all around and I feel like she will get some big recognition later. She’s my fav. I gravitate to everything she does.

[@markbeck8384]

Good interview, and I think i would like her. The movie was wonderful., and she did a great job.

[@Wesselvs]

Man, your interviews are the best. PLEASE keep doing them. Ur great, love the questions

[@AwsmUsername]

She played amazingly, every actor did great, but she just overshadowed everyone. Very impressive, very unexpected, enjoyed every bit of the movie.

[@SusieSynth]

I usually don't watch apocalypse films but this one was beautiful and terrifying at the same time but the main reason I watched it was because of Kirsten. I love everything she's in.

[@vivianhayes4515]

I think she actually dug into this character and cared about the role because usually when see an interview the person says "uh" or "um" a lot, but she doesn't. I didn't hear one "um" in this interview. That is a good thing.

[@mfloyd1556]

So beautiful and well spoken! Love Kirsten

[@JavierBonillaC]

It is an extraordinary film. At the moment of watching it I did not realize that it would have an impact on me. I am not depressive even.

[@forerunner7]

I LOVE HER!!!.. But Melancholia was so depressing it took me over a week get over the heaviness from this film emotionally and mentally.

[@BroonParker]

You got over it?

[@carrieluvv]

so eloquent i didnt expect that she looks fantastic !

[@ZeljkoAnzulovic]

She is so extremely talented!

[@BasarabtheLiar]

It's brilliant watching something like Interview with the Vampire and then watching Melancholia, because she's brilliant in both, but you still you can see how far she's come.

[@chrisubias7135]

She is a great actress and an absolutely gorgeous woman

[@Bleech606]

Wonderful actress. Wonderful person. I think she's great.

[@ELKASPER1993]

She is sooo beautiful ! ! ! ^___^

I’ll have to try the film again. The first time it was work to “read”. I love her as an actress and wowzer - the instant shot in the arm energy her game brings to her work. Spotless Mind, Elizabethtown, Bring it On.

[@FernandoLopez-tx6lr]

one of the best actressesses of her generation

[@gustavocarrasqro.5051]

Hermosa! sin duda, me gusto mucho en Melancholia, espero que siga asi.

[@nataliegrigg6986]

I met her on a plane, she was so fun. I loved her energy, she bought me the wine served on plane, California cheap white wine. It was gross, I could not drink it all, the whole Minnie bottle. Ahaahaa. I admired her as an actress, before that, for this role especially, the way she openly talked about depression.

[@iamfel1pe]

kirsten dunst is flawless, love her.

[@dp30]

For the record, no one's hotel room. Rented by the studio. Bed not normally left in. Did the best we felt we could do with the space. Yes, an odd set-up.

She's a woman, not a girl, and this interview isn't about her beauty. It's about her as a talented actor, you dumb troglodyte.

Best Planet X movie ever.

[@065cherry]

To be honest when I see a photo of Kristen I think she's quite boring, flat, she doesn't look that pretty. But when I see her in a movie, or a video, she looks so fresh, so nice, and funny, and I think she's the most beautiful girl. Some people show a lot more when they talk

[@RedaDoodles]

[@sheshahayat5117]

It seems like everyone , especially Kirsten Dunst & her sister in the movie Were doing “ A Role Play “ rather than acting, which made it so much more meaningful & profound,,, Tbh it made me think & reunite with my creator ALLAH & QURA’AN ,,,,

[@woolvesv]

Drop Dead Gorgeous is also one of my fave films lol

[@woolvesv]

I feel like Kirsten Dunst is an underaterd actress. All her commercial films are quite Hollywood....comedies whatever. But you can really see her potential in her independent movies. Virgin Suicides is amazing and I love crazy/beautiful too. I think shes great in dramas

[@TheBadLiutenant]

I think she looks amazing.

[@arlodante1163]

Lars works with lots of beautiful and absolutely talented women

[@arlodante1163]

The interviewer is asking a lot of good questions

[@jasonlefler3456]

I'm not getting a vibe that this journalist is trying to make KD look stupid at all. He's seem engaged, insightful, and sympathetic. KD seems relaxed and free.

[@bojisti]

the superficial content of this and the superficial comments show how the msg of movies like these are totally lost by the masses of consumers, bringing their own self-destruction with their utter stupidity and pointless existence. Makes you wonder how this woman played the role so well without realizing what the film is about. It screams at you and yet the zombies keep staring and not seeing.

[@josephniepce7887]

I really liked your comment. It happens so rarely that someone writes your own thought and it is very pleasant. Thank you. Anyways wasnt thinking about it at the moment - your comment reminds me my thoughts when Melancholia entered cinemas, 2 yrs ago or so.

[@nowwearesix3012]

Joseph Niepce what silly sentiments from both of you

[@josephniepce7887]

Well, im so desperately trying to CARE. Im struggling soo much to do it ... but Im failing to do so. I just literally do not care about your opinion in this case. I wanted to let him know, I feel like it has been important for me that day to let him know, thats the story, Im glad that I did it. Feel free to express ur opinion, however, no problem of course.

Claire Danes and Kirsten Dunst are the same person

[@Tr0nzoid]

Who decides on these locations for the interviews? Was this part of a junket?

[@dp30]

I think we were on a press day, off the junket. Location was a room at the Beverly Hills Hilton, which had not been changed from a regular bedroom for the press day. So we improvised as best we could. There was originally a bathrobe on the couch, which Kirsten nixed.

[@MargotHypnos]

She needs to get back on board with the Bell Jar!

[@troyparkre6462]

I think the interviewers goal was to make Kirsten look like a fool but he never had a chance jack.

[@dp30]

Wow. That is one of the oddest, most offensive comments (to me) I have seen in a while.

[@BombHead]

troy parkre What? Watch his other interviews. he does highly intelligent interviews with actors and filmmakers. He's not some skeezy TMZ / glossy magazine interviewer looking for a shocking headline to help sell more.

[@slowpainful]

I didn't get that so much about making her look foolish, but I HATE HATE HATE how he keeps interrupting her ! UGH like, STFU, dude, it is SO ANNOYING. Have a listen - he talks over her, asks a question then doesn't let her finish. Oh my god. It's so rude and so abusive, almost. So yeah, jerk, total. She's adorable, so down to earth, and so classy, too.
