Lars von Trier did not recognize Mel Gibson
Lars von Trier has no regrets about being declared persona non grata at the Cannes Film Festival. The director himself spoke about this in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter. “I must say that I am even proud to have been excommunicated from the festival. I think my family is too, '' he said. At the same time, the director once again stressed that his words were simply misinterpreted. “What he said was, of course, stupid. Trust me, I'm definitely not Mel Gibson. I just meant that I understand what it means to be Hitler, to sit in my bunker and hatch all sorts of plans, '' added von Trier. It is not yet known exactly what consequences the status of a person will have for the director non grata. This is the first time such a harsh measure has been applied to a director during the entire existence of the Cannes Film Festival. Recall that Lars von Trier at a press conference on the premiere of his movie `` Melancholy '' admitted his sympathies for the Nazis and personally for Adolf Hitler, which shocked not only the journalists, but also his movie crew.
