Who would have thought an auteur would be a fully formed and flawed person where flaws may be as extreme as their talent. It’s almost as if creativity is connected to emotions, ideology and experience or something.

everyone, i think. doesn't mean auteurs have to make movies glorifying their flaws without a trace of introspection for 20+ years.

Which genres would that be? One could also argue that certain genres simply won't ever work as an arthouse movie.

> Which genres would that be? Space opera, high fantasy and bangsian fantasy are three that come to mind.

Exluding them is for the better... we got more than enough

Lars Von Trier is objectively good cinema

I suppose that's not what you meant, but I love the idea of "Lars Von Trier" as a persona being good cinema.

At the very least, it made me understand that I need him to appear as himself in the next Death Stranding game.

I feel like people are reading this as "this is how the under signers think all movies should be made, and we are judging movies not made this way as a moral failing", when I think a better reading would be "as directors/film makers/story tellers, this is how we think we can maximize our own creativity and joy when we make movies".

>The film must be shot where the narrative takes place. This one really stands out by exculding whole genres and not really adding anything interesting to work around.

That's ok. The goal is not for every film to fit into this criteria.

I don't think it's meant as a constraint to be worked around, but as a guardrail against being inauthentic. And it excludes a lot less than its inspiration Dogme 95, which has as one rule "Genre movies are not acceptable."

> "Genre movies are not acceptable."

I find that hilarious, like proclaiming that only other people have an ethnicity or an accent. Because of course Dogme is a genre of its own.
