Lars von Trier’s films have been created in a state of intoxication. While writing his manuscripts he has put himself in a special state by drinking a bottle of vodka a day and taking ‘a drug’, he says, saying that this has been his way of entering a ‘parallel world’ – a special state in which ideas develop.
Now that he’s sober, Lars von Trier’s afraid that he has run dry as an artist and can only make ‘shitty films’.
