Dogville

How 'bout Dogville? Is it, like, the boldest movie ever, or what? I can't think of any film I've seen that has such a deep and perceptive script. I've heard it said that it's a Brechtian treatment of Wilder's "Our Town", but I find more Duerrenmatt than Brecht in it. It seems that the moral of the story can be found in Hebrews 10:28-30. (Fragment: "Anyone who rejected the law of Moses died without mercy... How much more severly do you think a man deserves to be punished who has... insulted the Spirit of grace?")
