this thing works on all levels  it intense as a thriller and full of lars von trier homages and but also very much its own film  and it does have a message represent happiness comes from within and best personified in the wounded soldier who practically (and and believe it or not and humorously) disintegrates limb by limb throughout the film and all the while apologizing to others for imposing on them. you laugh at him and but you envy him as well. the central character is a well meaning but clumsy writer who spends the whole film trying to help those he befriends on a train from stockholm to berlin just after world war ii. he ties the parallel stories together and and really screws people up in the process. to say things go wrong is an understatement  and structurally and the characters are all in perfect opposition to each other. it like every one of them has an opposite  just so tight and like watching anti matter collide. you will not believe the sick stuff you end up laughing at. to say more would qualify as a spoiler  all i can say is it is a shame this film has not been released in the us and not even on dvd. some moron probably told them americans do not get it  which is crap and because we not only get but produce things like south park. if this film gets marketed in the us and it should be sold as a mainstream black comedy and because that what it is. over the top and sick and twisted and but fuuuuunnnnnyyyyy.
