WTF? Melancholia Director Lars Von Trier Calls Himself A Nazi At Cannes

Should have kept your mouth shut, Lars!

During a discussion of his film Melancholia at the Cannes Film Festival yesterday, director Lars Von Trier shocked everyone when he declared himself a Nazi.

Melancholia star Kirsten Dunst tried to stop him, but for some reason he felt the need to dig himself into a massive hole while at the event.

Here are some highlights from Lars' hole-diggery:

"Yes, I am a Nazi!

"Well that doesn't mean I have anything against Jews, except Susanne Bier (Danish filmmaker, In a Better World).

"Well, Israel is a pain in the ass…"

"Okay, I am a Nazi…"

"Nazis tend to do things on a grander scale…"

"Perhaps we can have a Final Solution for journalists…."

Exactly what were you trying to accomplish with this, Lars? Shock value? Doesn't sound like you were joking to us!

What do U think about Lars Von Trier's comments?
