Directed by Lars von Trier2h 4m2013
The continuation of Joe's sexually dictated life delves into the darker aspects of her adult life and what led to her being in Seligman's care.
Our read: Nymphomaniac (2013) reads as a heavy, measured, inventive drama entry — extreme in intensity, intimate in scope, cold in temperature, nihilistic in outlook, with a strong directorial signature.
Heavy, measured, extreme drama, inventive in texture. Nihilistic, intimate, cold.
