The bare essentials
Article Abstract:
A minimalist movie style developed in Denmark in 1995 is having a major impact on the motion picture industry, and is likely to be taken up by Hollywood, though it was initially conceived as a way of subverting Hollywood. Thomas Vinterberg and Lars Von Trier developed the style, which came to be called dogma. Aspects of the style include hand-held cameras, shooting on location, and sound produced at the time of the shooting. Dogma movies can be produced cheaply, but have to be well-crafted to succeed.
