I see the film Dogville is on tonight at 11:50. It seems to be over three hours long according to the schedule. Is this right? I need to pre-programme my PVR!

Many thanks for your post - Dogville is a long one! You need to allow 3 hours 20 minutes

I always set my recorder to start 5 minutes before a film, and to stop 15 minutes after the scheduled end time.

I missed the end of the Crazies when it was on last year, I haven't made the same mistake since!

I managed 2 watch Dogville the otha nite and really enjoyed it. It was quite satisfying 2 c someone who isnt American, offering an ugly portrayal of American attitudes. Its easy 4 American rebels like Jon Stewart, trey Parker, Matt Stone e.t.c to scorn their own country, but it is a brave and effective film from Dogville's Danish director, Lars Von Trier.

Using a mininalist theatrical set, constant narration, conventional camera angles, and supported by a brilliant cast including Paul Bettany, Nicole Kidman and James Caan, Lars Von Trier has created a film well worth spending 3 and a half hours on.

I only managed to see the film from when she ran into the village and hid in the cave (was that the very start? I don't know)

anyway, I really enjoyed the film.. very good.
