Lars von Trier - The Nymphomaniac

Nobody can accuse Shia LaBeouf, erstwhile star of the Transformer movies and burgeoning arthouse adventurer, of not being keen. After revealing that he took acid to prepare for a tripped-out scene in new film The Necessary Death of Charlie Countryman and drank moonshine while filming John Hillcoat's upcoming prohibition tale Lawless, the 26-year-old actor has now claimed he secured a part in Lars von Trier's controversial new film Nymphomaniac by posting sex tapes to the Danish arch-provocateur.

The tapes reportedly featured LaBeouf and his girlfriend Karolyn Pho, whose reaction to such salacious material falling into the hands of the most unpredictable film-maker in Europe is at this stage unknown.

"I sent him videotapes of me and my girlfriend having sex and that's how I got the job," LaBeouf told late-night US talk show host Chelsea Handler during an appearance on her Chelsea Lately programme. "I don't know what it's gonna be until I get out there. I know he's a very dangerous director; I know we're trying to do something different. It's not your typical film.

"Von Trier is promising to release Nymphomaniac in softcore and hardcore versions, with the latter reportedly breaking film-making taboos by including footage of real sex. LaBeouf suggested in a recent interview that body doubles would most likely be used for the film's more salacious scenes, but has also expressed a willingness to follow orders on set, whatever they may be. "There's a disclaimer at the top of the script that basically says we're doing it for real," he told MTV last month. "Everything that is illegal, we'll shoot in blurred images. Other than that, everything is happening.

"LaBeouf's willingness to share with Von Trier would appear to be something of a volte-face from his earlier assertion that he'd have to consider Pho's feelings before engaging in real sex on film. In fact, there are so many contradictions in the actor's proclamations on Nymphomaniac that one wonders if he may have picked up a touch of tongue-in-cheek disease from the famously playful director.

SO EDGEY

lol, Shia thinks he's being cool but odds are he can't escape his own douchiness.

Still, bravo, why not? You only live once.

wonder if his desire to prove himself as a serious actor after transformers will ultimately lead him to become a heroin addict, or catch aids...

Fuck Lars Von Trier and fuck Shia Lebeouf.

Seriously.

I have less and less respect for superstar actors as time goes by.

 

there are two probs with this statement

1) why did you ever have respect for actors

2) shia labouf is a superstar?

they used doubles for antichrist. Unless his dick looks exactly the same in the closeup shots from what we *know* it looks like, i'm calling bullshit

nsfw

i personally will be doing everything in my power to get to the bottom of this dick issue. if its shia's dick, or the dick of another, i'm gonna find out.

waiting for this. melancholia was my favorite movie from 2011.

Well, it's not like we haven't seen real sex scenes before. The Brown Bunny and Ken Park come to mind

So is this another "Puzzy Power" manifesto film? I downloaded 2 of the Zentropa porn flicks once. Boring.

Just look at this shit:

Michael Winterbottom already made a movie with a real cumshot in it.

I might aswell make a list of things on porn videos that turn me on and make a manifesto out of them, so I can have a bunch of porn videos made only to satisfy my masturbational needs.

This is actually a great idea now that I think about it

So did John Cameron Mitchell. That dude in Shortbus jizzed in his own mouth.

If Von Trier or LeBeouf were actually edgy, they'd try to top that.

I'd watch a movie where Shia LaBeouf did anal.

i'd watch it with you
